MCcricket Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 awesome guy its all about momentum in his delivery he is not tall for a bowler, about 6 2 (same height as irfan pathan lol) however has anybody noticed that usually the fastest bowlers tend to be 6 1 and 6 2 I think Brett Lee and Mr Wart Akther too are in that zone THIS WAS UR FIRST POST AND BELOW IS THE SECOND, U CANNOT EVEN KEEP UR STORY STRAIGHT LOL 6 feet to 6 2 somewhere in that region. he is not less than 6 feet however. Looks the sameish height as G Smith
G_B_ Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 in any case Steyn is 6 foot tall as confirmed in this article http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/cricket/international/england/2304903/Kevin-Pietersen-set-for-South-Africa-pace-trial.html and thats a proper source. Not wikipedia.......:finger:
Hell Raiser Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 Dale Steyn one man army :adore::adore::adore::adore::adore:
Tiger80 Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 in any case Steyn is 6 foot tall as confirmed in this article http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/cricket/international/england/2304903/Kevin-Pietersen-set-for-South-Africa-pace-trial.html and thats a proper source. Not wikipedia.......:finger: That article mention Makhaya Ntini just 5-9" .I don't think there was 3 inch difference between Steyn and Ntini
Trundler27 Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 Dale Steyn = Champion Fast Bowler of this decade. :hatsoff: IMO in the next 3-5 years he has the potential to upstage the likes of donald and pollock in the pantheon of south african greats. He can potentially become the greatest south african fast bowler of all time.
Pak_Fan_4_Eva Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 yadav and steyn are of similar height >< From the looks of it, height is the only thing they have in common:winky: Jokes aside, hats off to Steyn:hatsoff:. It's a shame he plays in one of the suckiest South African team of recent times.
bhanu Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 Congrats :hatsoff:...... poor guy missed da chance againt aussies wen he drop a catch on his own ball.
BERGKAMP Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 @ an average of 23. incredible bowler. we will look back on him in 20 years time as we currently look back on mcgrath, walsh etc.
Old guy Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 umesh yadav catchin up.....B-> too early.. amir looked like catching him what a waste of talent i still feel bad for him
Blue Panther Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 too early.. amir looked like catching him what a waste of talent i still feel bad for him ha ha, i was joking, it would take atleast an year to convince us that umesh is as good as steyn.
daryl1985 Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 Dale Steyn = Champion Fast Bowler of this decade. :hatsoff: IMO in the next 3-5 years he has the potential to upstage the likes of donald and pollock in the pantheon of south african greats. He can potentially become the greatest south african fast bowler of all time. Many Saffers already rate him above those two. I think he is already on Pollock's level and it is debateable as to whether he is better than Donald. Next year's England-South Africa series will be fantastic to watch, especially if Philander can keep up his form and perform abroad.
Old guy Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 ha ha' date=' i was joking, it would take atleast an year to convince us that umesh is as good as steyn.[/quote'] in our case 2 years cos many bowler impress for a year then .. we all know @ guy who said its the only thing comparable..well steyn is my fav bowler i started watching test matches cos of him! so im not eve trying to say yadav is as good as steyn im just saying they re of similar height and of similar type fast bowers who bowl out swingers and some balls he bowled to west indies reminded me of steyn LOL
Old guy Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 dale steyn is already a south african gr8 to me he should try and get 450 plus wickets then he will be considered a bowling gr8 i rate him higher than mcgrath ...
King Tendulkar Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 Still 150 plus wickets behing bhaji:cantstop:
saneindian Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 Still 150 plus wickets behing bhaji:cantstop: 4 years and 50 tests younger than him too :P
