kapil dev

As Andrew Nixon said- flintoff??
also I wouldn't concider Irfan Pathan to be in the top 5 of all time .he has just made his arrival to international cricket.He is now in the worst of forms.If this form continues his name would be forgotten from our minds.If he returns back to from & stays in form,he could deserve a place in that 5 after 15-20 years.

in short I feel it is too early to place him in top 5.
and if ur top 5 is in an order,Kapil Dev should be 2nd & not 4th.

Ah yes Allan Donald, what a classic player. He would be # 6 on my list. One of the best bowlers ever.

I always fondly remember his duels with Sachin Tendulkar during the 1996-97 series (I was in Orissa, India at that time!). He bowled a ball that pitched outsdie the off stump and swung in by a mile to uproot Tendulkar's leg stump. WHAT A CLASSIC DELIVERY!!!!! He is one of the best and in my list of Top 5 bowlers! He lost control in the later stages of his career but still he is wonderful! But a very temperemental guy. He had that famous altercation with a normally ice cool guy, Rahul Dravid!

Sounds too lame Zorax.. :D

De Villiers is not bad in my opinion. He was a good bowler.
 
But it very easy to mistake that he was reffering to De Villiers, just read what Sai posted at the end and then what The Champ posted. Just though I'd just use that as a joke...ahh, another one of my lame classics *sigh*.
