Some say Muttaih because of his doosra but everyone can knows how to bowl it now.Others say Akhtar because of his pace but several bowlers are now clocking the 145+km/hr mark.Well i say its Warne because although batsmen can pick his variation he still lands he still bowls some unplayable deliveries.Whom do you think?

Ian Blackwell is turning into a class act, he will be feared......... maybe not I'd agree with the fact that Warne is quite intimidating. Although, on the asian subcontinent, they are good at playing spin, they prefer to humiliate spinners more than the seamers. |

I'd fear his batting way more than his bowling - he can hit the bowl a long way and with some power, I can tell you. |

What about Glenn McGrath. He is a very good bowler. He has complete control over line and length.

McGrath is a very good bowler, not doubt. But when it comes to Most Feared Bowler, i have no doubt in saying that Shoaib is the most feared bowler. Warne is one of the best, no doubt, but What if Pakistan or India are the opponents? Shoaib Akhter, is dangerous, even Sachin is shaky, at times while facing his pace. |

Shoaib is a very feared bowler. His pace is extremely dangerous. He has hurt a lot of batsmen with his bouncers.

No doubt shoab is the most feared, as batsman fear getting hurt not get out, so warne and murali may be most accurate, but teh fear generated by shoab , lee and nitini is awsome.

Remmember a beamer by shoab to kallis once, so a fast bowler with a tendency to be wavered is most feared!

Lee no doubt. He can get his bouncers in the right spot, shoaib doesnt always, he has poor control. Fast bouncers that are controled and fast yorkers are feared, Lee is the best at that. Look what happened to Kallis in the 2nd test vs Aus at Melb.

Shoaib is most feared because he has actually hurt a lot of batsman. I have seen videos in which some batsman have been hurt quite brutally with a bouncer from Shoaib.
I don't know if Lee has hurt batsman brutally with bouncers, but Shoaib sure has and that's why he is the most feared bowler. |

Shoaib is the fastest bowler, and he's come closest to killing someone so he wins.

Spinners can put in a few bouncers, remmember one series where Afridi actually bowled a few, anyways at times he's even faster than a few quickies!

Among spinners, Afridi is the one who bowls faster one at times. But dont tell me that he terrifies the batsmen.

I remember a Pak India match wherein Shrikant was hit on the forehead by a bouncer from Wasim Akram and he was severally injured, taken to the hospital senselss, having fourteen stitches. That bouncer really ended his career. Although he appear in some matches thereafter, but he could never face Wasim confidently everafter. Anybody remembers that match? |

Infact in a VB series ausies put pakistan in on an underprepared wicket and they were all out very cheaply, in return pakistan bunddled them out for even lower score, the wicket was so bad that Afridi and Ejaz ahmed even bowled a few bouncers and were unplayable, that series pakistan won under wasim akram.
