Dale steyn the bowler, Watson the batsman, kallis the catcher, Boucher the keeper Smith in fist slip, Shane warne and Robin Jackman the commentators....The best combination altogether to watch game of cricket..Miss that era
I have not watched Malcolm Marshall, Joel Garner, Andy Roberts, Michael Holding, Jeff Thomson and Dennis Lillee. I imagine it was a bit like this. Steyn is the symbol of a bygone era and the last of the great fast bowlers who terrorized batsmen.
@@zebesiv is that true though? Cummins, as good as he is, evokes discomfort, not terror. Its his guile and cunning that makes batsmen wary of them. Bumrah is the same. I imagine from my time it would be like facing Pollock, Vaas or Mcgrath. Even the premier speedster of that time, Brett Lee, didn't inspire fear. Shane Bond could've but he didn't last long enough for us to see. Mitchell Johnson did, but only towards the end of his career.
@@abhijiththampi Oh I see what you mean now. I think placing Bumrah and Cummins in the same basket as McGrath and Pollock is a bit unfair. Both are 10kph quicker on average and both are better rounded, as in they both can do a bit of what Lillee and Thompson did, as well as a bit of what McGrath, Anderson, Hadlee etc did in smaller doses. There's actually several phenomena that leads to there not being as many such bowlers. Batsmen seem to have better reflexes and bowlers probably don't see the point in express pace anymore since it's too injurious (also 120-130kph medium pacers have also all but disappeared from the game as well). But to say that there can't be other fast bowlers like Lilee, Thompson etc is unfair. The game ebbs and flows over the decades. Test cricket has been dying for 70 years now and will continue to die for the next 200.
Of course overshadowed by the second innings collapse but Clarke's 151, on that deck, against that attack. One of the great unknown test innings. Bloody hell Dale Steyn was a pleasure to watch. Even for an Aussie like myself.
@@monashmofo314I watched this series Australia lost this test I think in second innings they got out for 88 or 68 if I remember correctly and after this Australia wins the test where Cummins take them to Glory

Show me a spell of this quality by any bowler in the last few years. This is TEST cricket such intensity. True greatness on every surface on every continent. Just unmatched.

thats the epitome of fast bowling.the aura of a proper fast bowler..those eyes..shivering...the sprint and that late outswing over 140 kmph..goodness me..is there any better sight in fast bowling....
I haven't seen the great Malcolm marshal bowling..bcz i m 90 born. But i have followed this man's entire career.. And i hv all the right to say that steyn is greatest of all time.. Able to bowl 90 miles on consistent basis with ability to swing the ball .. Never needed conducive conditions for bowling. Even took wickets on dead indian tracks
No other fast bowler can come up at the batsman and keep coming even in the toughest conditions Reverse swinging at 145KPH+ He’s the world’s best fast bowler, yes the stats will say something else compared to other bowlers, but He Remains Unique, one of a Kind ♥️
Well even statistically, he's a monster..439 test wickets, avg 22.95 at a strike rate of 42.3 and imporantly his stats hold up in all conditions including Asia..Yes he won't be playing until his 60s like Jimmy Anderson but while he was playing, he was comfortably the best fast bowler...Anderson has ridiculous longevity but is not in the highest tier of bowlers..That includes like likes of Mcgrath,Akram,Malcolm Marshall,Ambrose and Steyn
I think alongside Steyn Mohammad Amir and shane bond are also bowlers who swing the ball at speed of 140+ these three are best bowlers for me especially shane bond is very underatted
Absolute Legend.....No doubt about that....... Carry No. 1 ranking for 6 years not a joke. He is still number one bowler for many Cricketer especially in test cricket. Aggression, dedication and Team spirit everything he has. We loved Dale after ABD.
What a bowler ! He was the last pace bowler who could literally get batsmen out at will . Haven’t seen anyone as good as him when it comes to accuracy besides James Anderson.

The actual accuracy of the speed gun aside, bowling 148km/h at sea level is quite something. That’s in the 150’s at altitude. Factor in the ridiculous amount of movement he was getting and that’s not something you want to face too many times in your cricket career. For a shortish fast bowler, he generated incredible pace. Blessed with them fast twitch muscle fibres!
100% Competiter ! The only way I could think of improving him would be if he was born in Australia and teaming with Mitch Johnson etc. ! Huge respect from this Aussie !😎👍
Styen is the greatest bowler because having average of 22.95 and 439 wickets in test and 25.95 and 196 wickets in one day that too when cricket become one sided batsman friendly with rules favoring batsman. This is great achievement for any bowler in this era.
IPL kids after pandemic see this video before starting trolling one of the best bowler of this generation and probably the best all format bowler in his time!!.
SA has produced some of the greatest fast bowlers that cricket has ever seen. In the lights of Donald, Shultz, De Villers, Morkel to name a few. And in my books Steyn is on the the top 3 from any list of top fast bowlers.
Love this idea of fast bowler dominating batsman making his life hell on the pitch I agree there should be even contest between bat and ball but more factors play role in that
I hate comparing eras but these guys feel like giants of the game. Ponting,AB,Kallis,Hussey,Smith ,Clarke,Steyn ..gosh these were quality cricketers. Steyn's new ball spell of speed,hostility and swing is reminiscent of the greatest ever quicks ala Marshall,Hadlee,Trueman,Imran,Wasim, Lillee, Lindwall. Superb.
5:21 Perfection with the old ball to the world #1 at the time on 80. Bowled beautifully in this innings. Clarke weathered the storm so well. Great knock. That first ball that got Watson was a peach. Only a number 11 could middle that one. Fantastic test cricket.
3:02 if an Australian did that Mike Haysman would whinge about it for the rest of the test. Also, Michael Clarke was clearly the best test batsman in the world from mid 2011 to mid 2013. Carried an Australian side that was battling to be honest.
Bro from where do you get this type of videos? I'm searching for Australia tour of South Africa 2014 all over the internet and I just can't find it anywhere?
That ball to S.Marsh was missing. Missing off, missing leg and going on to destroy middle. Steyn would fit in perfectly with the bowling attack of Holding, Roberts, Marshall and Garner. Fast and nasty. Perfect test bowling
The change in ball's path/trajectory before the bounce is called SWING, after the bounce it's not swing, it's known as CUT. Coming from a proper pacer of his era.
AT the bounce is cut. E.g. an offcutter is a fast bowler delivering with offspin type of hand motion and moving it left to right off the deck. If the ball moves in the air AFTER the bounce it is still swing.

And if the ball is swinged , it means the trajectory or the direction of movement of the delivery has been changed , and after pitching , it will move in that same direction only , and get deviated from its original path , which could be seen against Brad haddin in this video

Donald and Steyn - 2 awesome fast bowlers I had the privilege to see play. Steyn was a bloody terror!
Shows how well Clarke batted having to deal with this sort of bowling. His ability under pressure was underrated.
Bowling and that aggression! Steyn was a menace in his prime
He's not underrated people just don't like Clarke, that's why hardly anyone mentions him
What a ridiculous comment, in the sense that you haven’t fully appreciated Dale Steyn for the wonderful fast bowler he was.
His Aggression, Confidence, Celebration is incredible one of the finest dominate bowler of world Cricket one and only Stane Gun....
True but clarke's innings should be applauded as well, he scored runs despite steyn's domination.
