JUST IMPRESSIVE ... I KINDA LIKE IT ... BUT THE PROBLEM IS ... WE CAN'T SEE HIS BOWLING ....
Greatest bowler ever? Really Mr. Boycott?? He played 27 matches! On uncovered pitches! Against just TWO teams! No disrespect to him, but that's not a career. It's a streak. Muralitharan has had streaks longer than 30 matches where he has got on average 5 wickets each innings. And if you really want to talk statistics in judging the greatest bowler ever, I've got four words for you. 133 matches - 800 wickets!
