Great Bowlers in Cricket of all
times:
Cricket is said to be a batsman's
game, in which the rules mostly favour batsmen; but, there are many bowlers who
give/gave tough times to batsmen and made a name for themselves in the
international cricketing arena. Here I mention about a few great bowlers of all
times. Average in bowling statistics means the number of runs given away
per wicket, and strike rate means the number of balls bowled before a
wicket is taken.
1. Sydney Barnes (England,
1901-1914). He is regarded as the greatest bowler of all times. He was
a renowned fast bowler who played for England. He had a wide variation in his
pace bowling from Slow medium to Medium Fast. His career statistics is as
