Worst Bowling Action.>

[Ernest]

Just trivia, but a serious point, who do you think had the worst bowling action in cricket?, Test Cricket in the main, bit domestic cricket also.
The serious point is, did the fact that a bowler had an ugly action, mean he was a poor bowler?,
Which top bowler had the worst bowling action?.

I nominate Bob Willies, and he was no mug.

I dont like that action that Tino Best has.

Angus Fraser, I was not that keen on his action.

There are stacks of crummy actions around right now. Fidel Edwards' roundarm thing is pretty horrible.. but at least it allows him to move the ball either way... which is more than can be said for Flintoff's gracelessly muscular, chest on heave. RBLC is right though: Paul Adams was(is) the worst I can ever imagine having graced the international stage.

[Ernest]

I had forgot about Adams, and bowling actions have been going down hill, don't know why.


Flintoffs action is not that good, but he is not on his own these days.

Murali, forget the chucking, does not look pretty.

Simon Jones has an appalling action, although in the light of things, we should admire the fact that he is bowling at all. On the spin front, Bhagwat Chandresekhar but he was mightlily effective by all accounts despite his polio.

Hmm, Angus Fraser, was not good to look at, but he was mightlily effective also.
