Handlee is so underrated . Better then lillee, Thompson , Walsh , bond , holding , Garner , waqar , Donald : 

 

absolute scientific executioner . Needs hyping more 

[bowl_out]

Brett Lee, Mitchell Starc, Alan Mulally, Alan Donald, Waqar Younis, Zaheer Khan

 

Mulally had a beautiful action, but is a lesser known bowler. He and Starc have the most rhythmic action for left arm seamers. Starc’s action is an upgraded and quicker version of Mulally

Undoubtedly, Shane bond. What a bowler!!!! 

Those matches against Aussies where he made them dance to his tunes.Lovely action, pace and to get movement at that pace.  

 

Besides him, from current ones: Steyn, Amir and Boult.

I am quite shocked nobody rates Kapil Dev's action! 

Not graceful

Bond,Lee and all time favorite Donald 

[Jimmy Cliff]

Dominic Cork and Simon Doull had pretty good actions as well. Doull especially looked great when he bowled those hooping outswingers.

As expected by me Bonds action is a hot favorite so far, what a legend, sad was loss to international cricket!

Absolutely. Smoothest of actions you ever get to see. Almost effortless.. and top it up with that heroic surname.

[speedheat]

Damian Flemming and Jerome Taylor comes to mind lovely rhythmic action and lively pace by two.

My list with some of the best bowling actions

Shane Bond

Lance Klucener - My personal favorite whom I was in awe of. 

Brett Lee

Andrew Bichel - Top class when in full motion. 

Morne Morkel

Dale Steyn

Alan Donald 

James Anderson

Ryan Harris 

Michael Holding - Running in hard and then that poetry action. Class above many.

I always felt Allan Donald had probably the smoothest action among all bowlers... lovely flowing action that resulted in him bowling at a very good pace and was also able to swing the ball appreciably. Just wonderful to watch.

Holding.

[Rightarmfast]

it was probably the first cricket series i watched and i  saw him bowl,it was like he used to take aim and shoot,rather than bowl , copied his action a lot during childhood

Thread is about beautiful action. Nothing beautiful about Walsh. Ambrose beast still better.

1 - Kapil Dev - he may not have been the world's best fast bowler, but his action was poetry in motion

2 - Waqar Younis - Absolute beauty. Bowlers like Darren Gough copied his action later, but Waqar was one of his kind.

3-  Allan Donald 

4 - Dale Steyn

5- Umesh Yadav 

etc etc etc

Gough was nowhere close to waqar in terms of action.
