Best delivery you have ever seen.

I agree that the Simon Jones and Steve Harmison wickets are amazing, but i still think the Chris Cairns slower ball beats them. I was like wow
 
The Chris Cairns one was sweet. Just saw it recently on Youtube.

But as I said earlier in the thread, Warne to Kristen. Who can get a ball that new to spin that much? And the when he did it to Strauss in the 05 ashes. Magic.
 
Sachin was hit on the shoulder and not the helmet. I do not recollect the ball hitting the helmet but I am very sure that the ball made first contact with the shoulder. That LBW decision was an example of horrible umpiring. Sachin has got a lot of such horrible decisions.
A common mistake is to assume the ball was rising and missing the stumps, however, as it was a short delivery and the pitch had taken so much off the bounce, it was actually falling when it hit Tendulkar's shoulder; and at that point it was perfectly in line with the stumps.
 
Cairns to Read is defiantly the funniest. You can't get much more deceived then that.

There are a few Warne ones which spring to mind.
 
I remember Simon Jones bowling a slower ball to Tsolekele. He could not have been more bamboozled.
 
Irottev, that was really funny. Didn't pick it at all

And Warne to Strauss in the 05 Ashes was amazing. Got heaps of spin on that ball. Pure magic!

Yep, same as that ball to Chanderpaul which spun back a mile. The one that got KP behind his legs that went on to hit leg stump was good.

Shane Bond has bowled some classic inswinging yorkers.

I think there was one whick Binger bowled which Michael Vaughan played at and had his off stump go for a walk.

Edit: That flipper from Warne to Richie Richardson is one of his best deliveries.

I can't decide on A best, but I remember Bond bowling an almost unplayable yorker to Ganga, nothing he could do. Ripped through him.

It looked like it was gliding when it was nearly on the floor.
 
Monty Panesar bowled, Inzi went for the sweep, lost his balance and then...fell over the stumps :laugh :laugh

That time I felt sad for the BIG inzi, :p not felt like laughing. It was a classic though. I wish inzi still played.
