I find the english bowling attack very good and very respected around the world.Harmison can really get quick at times and he is always a frighteing bowler to face{ask the Bangaladeshies)Freddie can also get fired up,Hoggard is just a captains perfect bowler with his swing at about130+ is very effective,Jones aint i let off he is quick and accurate. The Aussies also have a good attack.Lee is very quick South Africa have what i say the best attack,Pollock is anther Mr Perfect,Nel s aggressive,quick and i never say die bowler.Ntini is another hard worker who is quick,Langeveldt can swing the bowl at 135+,Zondeki can also swing the bowl at 140+. The Indain attack is also quite good.Pathan,Kahn,Nehra all swing the bowl very well in both directions at roughly 135+.Agakhar is developing ito a a good bowler. If you think otherwise please feel free to say who else |

England has the most consistently strong quartet with no weak links

Except Simon Jones's injury proneness. Hopefully Plunkett will prove the real deal though so we can have five to choose from.

Wharf hasn't played for a while now, you've actually forgotten Gough, although given the fact that he's been left out of the India touring party his days may be over. Kabir Ali hasn't really made the step up to top level as we thought he might. Don't write Jones off just like that - he did a very good job in the West Indies and was better than Harmison in South Africa. |

hmmm, no Pakistan.
Anyway, Austarlia has the best pace attack. England also have a strong pace attack because they have learned the art of reverse swing, which back in the 2 Ws days was considered ball tampering.

Pakistan have a good pace bowling attack with Akhtar, Naved and Sami.
But I don't think they have the consistency of Australia's or England's |

England by a country mile! Apart from Hoggard , all are quick (90mph) and all are different. Australia have Lee and McGrath and a few kids and Pakistan have Shoiab , Naved and Sami - pretty good units , both!
Because of their tweakers Australia have the better balanced attack - but England more than match them for pace bowlers. |

Well if you said that Pakistan have the best pace bowling attack wel guess again because Dravid And Sehwag are only 11runs short of the current world record for the first wicket stnd which stands at 413.Well that just says a lot about the pakistan attack doesn't it

Not really, it says a lot more about the pitch and India's batting than it does about the Pakistani bowling attack.

Well, both teams have batted great but I have to hand it to India. They have batted better.
As for Pakistan's pace attack. Shoaib's the spear-head. Rana and Sami can be expensive but are useful too. Rana can be very dangerous at times. |

i also think that england also need a classic spinner like india, pakistan,australia even thought there is giles. i dont think he is a spinner who kind a win s games for his team even though he can take 1 or 2 wickets often

Of course not Saad , that's why the world record holder for a test match happens to be a certain Jim Laker !! How's 19-90 at Old Trafford against Australia sound? Not bad for someone without class , don't you think? |

England has a fine pace attack. That's because they tamper the ball like Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Imran Khan, and Sarfraz Nawaz use to. But now, its called reverse swing, its called an art, its not called ball tampering. Wasim and Waqar were penalized for ball tampering when they used reverse swing, but now English bowlers are given compliments by everyone for mastering this art.
