Michael Holding If anyone has watched Michael Holding bowl, they would not consider anyone else for action-beauty. The smoothest, most effortless action. Someone mentioned Courtney Walsh - Walsh was a bit of a Holding-copy. No one else comes close. But then again, things and people from our childhood always seem better to us 40-somethings!

cric_fan Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 From what I have seen:Waqar- he is the reason I started following cricket. Even better when watched at the ground. Beautiful action. Poetry in motion. Dale Steyn- again even better when watched LIVEMohd SamiAlan DonaldShane BondMohd AsifBrett LeeMost legendary WI bowlers had lovely actionsJavagal Sreenath had a nice actionSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
rkt.india Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 For me, troika of Brett Lee, Alan Donald and Shane Bond. Michael Holding had a good runup too but his action was not that good to eyes. among current bowlers. really likes James Pattinson's action before his injury issues started troubling him. Mitch Starc is very good too. Mosher 1

Spot on rkt bhai regarding holding..... starc Lee and Donalds actions are smooth and most beautiful to watch, was pattinson forced to change his action to prevent injury??

MK55 Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 Brett Lee is my favorite and Starc among current players. Akhtar and Bond were fun to watch. Steyn's action is so smooth Bond ended up with perennial back issues and his mixed action might have some role in it. Having said that his action looked beautiful. speedheat 1
bhakum20 Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 Want to add Mitchell Starc too, nice, smooth and simple action. It's amazing how he generates 150k from such a simple action. Akhtar's run-up I would say was beautiful, probably one of the best of all time, his action was just brutal as if a cheetah is going to pounce on you!

mishra Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 Starc, Lee Tait Akhtar - The fastest ones must be the most beatiful action Marshal Walsh Ambrose Wasim Srinath Thomson Roberts. The Effortless fastest ones
