Allan Donald vs Australia picked up 3 wickets in the 1st innings and 5 wickets in 2nd innings to finish with match figures of 8/96 in one of the most ferocious and hostile spells of fast bowling in cricket history.
This Allan Donald hostile spell helped South Africa win the Test match by 8 wickets and these 8 scalps are among Allan Donald best wickets in his career and earned him the Man of the Match award.
Allan Donald had everything, He was handsome, purest action, lightning speed, inswinging Yorker, smooth run-up, born's once in an era like him... missing him and his era
How fast you reckon he was? No real radar at that time. Had to be upper 140s at least, you reckon?
@@orgoniteyahgoniteaustralia6888 his highest was 155 kmph against eng in 1998-99..I reckon his average speed was around 145 mark
@@diptangshuchaki5769 Wow... that's sharp. He'd been around for a while at that point too. I wonder if in his younger years he might have pushed 160?
@@diptangshuchaki5769 there were no speed guns before 2000s. Even Srinath was supposed to be bowling 150 kmph during 1999 WC but no speed guns to prove it
Suck him off why don’t you?
Winds me up that so many fans these days don't know how great Donald was. Had it not been for injuries and being unable to play test cricket until he was 25, he'd have taken over 500 wickets at 21/22 apiece. Astonishing bowler.
Allan"White Lightning"Donald!!!!He is a part of our childhood!!!!
Yeah, he was alright, aside from the silly make up that he always wore on his bottom lip. Like, we know it's not for medical purposes, Donald. Pack it in.
Still nowhere near as good as our Jimmy Anderson though.
@@OpinionatedMonk , peak for peak I think Donald was better than Anderson. But Anderson's longevity is his USP.
@@OpinionatedMonk Donald was better than Anderson..Anderson's plus point is his longevity for which he should be appreciated and he's a quality bowler but not in the same level as Donald..batsman take Anderson seriously only in UK..Donald was a threat everywhere..
I agree , I think injuries and starting late were the two factors , He was such an athletic bowler , I remember at the end of his career he had developed a slower ball and could get the ball to come back at the left hander , when he was young he was frightening.Fantastic Bowler .
I dont think 90s will ever come again, the most brilliant era in every sense. The cusp of glory was 90s
@@abhinavagarwal7029 Cullinan omg i forgot the name, he was a Goliath, n Slater used to slay with his ultra stylish shots. Wow
Donald has the most handsome bowling action in cricket
Nahi bro action to bhuvi Ka best hai
most handsome nhi most clean action
DK Lillee and Donald in my opinion.
Thevindu Maneth That would be Shaun Pollock
@@harshsingh1712 bhuvi ka ghnta ka action h
This is the purest form of fast bowling action. This should be the template for every young cricketer who wants to be a great fast bowler.
Sa ka player itna gora kaise dikh raha hei
@@soumyaranjandas7685 lol. You are saying as if you are a 5 year old. English people originally, living in sa
@@yakshrajsingh8121 sa player playing in england
Richard Hadlee, Michael Holding and Dennis Lillee were right up there as well. Their actions were technically perfect.
Donald had best bowling action i had ever seen...very clean and smooth....
mcgrath too
This is the first thing i noticed in this video and was looking to comment. “Clean and smooth” with no exaggerated movements, leg stretch and sling. He purely uses the jump to deliver the pace. Well I bowl with almost identical dynamics and seam position.
Absolutely true best comment.
Javgal Srinath had a great action too.
Watch it and compare.
Very flamboyant, agreesive smooth bowling action... Another one was Shane Bond..
One of the most beautiful bowling actions, no slinging. My favorite bowler growing up.
Rahul Gautam me too brother
Rahul Gautam , No slinging.........good eh.?
Mee too bro .. my all time favourite while growing up ..
Nothing wrong with slinging, if anything its far more difficult to control the delivery in a slinging action make it an even more prized skill.
@@mohnishkumar2006he is now the fast bowling coach of Bangladesh Cricket 😍
Days when test cricket had huge crowds to see a tussle of ball and bat...t20 has ruined cricket.we will never ever see another donald, or Akram or McGrath.glad I was born in 90's
Sahi bola t20 ne cricket ka kabada kr Diya
Lack of fast bowlers. Face him Mr rohit sharma and you will know what international standard is
White lightning
You miss Ambrose and Walsh in your list...
Great bowlers all, but I grew up with Roberts, Holding, Marshall, Garner, Lillee and Thomson - fantastic pace and aggression and the batsmen wore no helmets or armour. You had to be brave and tough to bat in those days. I do think Donald was a beautiful bowler to watch though.
Donald and ambrose.
The lively raging genuine fast bowlers of 90's
White lightning....best bowler's of the modern cricket..he looked like James bond playing cricket.. wowwww..
Great comment bro. What a deadly smooth bowler AD was.
RoadRash NT Back in Black
Actually Bond looks like him. He came first.😁
Allan Donald and Shane bond had one of the best bowling actions in modern times.
Shane Bond would've been Extra Special... Barring injuries... He shook the Aussies up 😎
@@michaelmarshall7700 still remember his debute odi series what a fast bowler he was !!!
Glenn McGrath as well .
Well said. My 2 favourite actions
What about Brett lee, Ntini and Steyn their action exceptional too.enjoued watching them
Donald and wasim akram were 2 bowlers i really enjoyed watching back in those golden days of cricket....alas todays cricket is commercial circus
King Buliwyf I agree with this comments
You missed glen McGrath
U r absolutely right
agree with you. todays cricket is a commercial circus
Akram and Yunis were fantastic to watch.
His action is like someone playing flute so soothing n smooth .
Great
One of the best series ever. The rivalry of the '90s. What an era! What a player!
Amazing teams, possibly the best spread - across multiple teams - of fast bowling in history. Waqar/Wasim, Donald/Pollock, Ambrose/Walsh/Bishop, McGrath/Warne/Gillespie. Class!
The Allan Donald yorker is the closest I have seen to an unplayable delivery. In his day he was epic !
Now these were the days. These players and this era is the reason I loved test cricket more than the other formats. This era also had so many legends, with every international team having had some legendary names. And Donald really is underrated. Too bad he only started his international career a bit later than most. Missed out. What an action.
I would not say he is under rated , all the legends rank him up there , one of his best duels was against Atherton and that was something special , I was lucky enough to se him when he toured the West indies , I had never ever see fast bowlers like that , he could get this love out swing , I think he bowled a lot of in swingers to right handers but I remember he bowled out Keith Arthurton and the stumps went flying . I agree , SA had a lot of great players and I am sure he would have gotten 450 wickets , I think he was a lot more terrifying than Styen.
Look at the crowds back then watching two great cricket nations, both with some great cricketers. Sad that now we see small crowds in South Africa and in Asia, the T20 revolution has taken that away which is very disappointing. Allan Donald made me sit up and take notice of the South African Cricket Team, he was a Rolls Royce in a sea of Toyotas. His bowling action rivals Lillee for the greatest in cricket and his pace was electric. A great, great fast bowler who took on some great players in their prime (Waugh's, Tendulkar, etc.) and never backed down. Shame we missed a few years of his career due to the ban.
The ball that dismissed Mark Waugh at 1.13 is unplayable. Outswing with off-cut to top of off stump. Brilliant.
He never got that fame and respect in spite of been one of greatest fast bowler with perfect bowling action
Maannnn. Look at the crowd and hear the sound.. rare to see such an atmosphere in these T20 days . Those are golden days 🙈
Great wrist position at the point of delivery. So effortless action too. True pace.
Wasn't he such a wonderful bowler. Even after watching him demolish my country like this, I can appreciate him!
Bangladesh Cricket team is really lucky to have a Legendary cricketer as a bowling Coach
That's why I was looking for
Back then when Bangladesh had no cricket team to represent them.
That bowling action and follow through was best in cricket.
Talib Hassan yes
The Blissful Zombie It's subjective anyway. Richard used to run in close to stump and bowl. I admire him too. But something about that jump stride and hand movement of Donald makes him look intimidating. and he indeed was during 90s.
Talib Hassan Malcolm Marshall?
TheChocolateOrange To each his own. If you like Marshall's action it's good.
Donald running in to bowl was like a Predator charging towards its prey with a spear in hand.
So much talent and strength. Oh Hansie, you had the greatest team ever. You and SA got short changed in life. You and your awesome team will always be remembered.
See 1999 world cup semi to see his batting
Shortchanged?
Are you saying he wasnt paid enough to fix matches?
Best bowler in the 90's and a beautiful bowling action. He and Shane bond are the most beautiful bowling action and run up as well.
Donald + Pollock = batsmans nightmare. Took 90% wickets between them....
The greatest fast bowler I have seen in my lifetime. Just poetry in motion. Effortless ruthlessness
Love the crowd, rarely for a test match such a crowd is seen now a days.
2:27 That delivery to dismiss Mark Taylor was a beauty ! An Allan Donald gem 🔴
Listen to the sound felt like T20. One of the Dangerous bowlers in the world. The name is Allen Donald 😍
One of the most finest and smooth bowling action in the world.
Speed demon!!!! That action and follow through
I will never forget that delivery which nipped back and uprooted the off stump of Sachin Tendulkar in the 1st test against India at Durban in 1996-97 test series ❤😍😍
That haunted me in the childhood whenever I watched him bowling
#WhiteLightning
I was a kid then. Before Donald uprooted the stumps, Sachin hit him for two consecutive fours and I told my friends that something big is gonna happen the next ball and there it was. Sachin's stump went for a walk and my friends were furious with me...
@@post37 it was a set up. sachin was playing on backfoot and Donald wanted him to play on front foot. the first ball sachin stopped on backfoot and drive for 4. next ball he was half front foot and drive for 4. third ball he came on front foot and ball nipped through the gap. being a sachin fan, i couldnt stop admiring donald for making best batsman play like he wants. McGrath only bowls same length and waits for batsman patience. donald is the best fast bowler in modern times.
Same here man...that ball was a jeffa, will always be etched in my memory.
Mcgrath is far more skillful and devious than just bowling than the same length, he had some excellent wicket taking deliveries too and had the ability to quickly find where to pitch a delivery to trouble batsmen on any pitch.
In my childhood, I always used to bowl with different actions , but was most successful while bowling with Allan Donald's !! Miss those days
Alan Donald the best fast bowler ever..great style,grt speed...just awesome
duke deewana what abt Ambrose u fucker
Nobody in this universe can beat that elite bowling action ❤
The white lightning...He was our hero..In the fast bowling department..during my childhood..Admire you Sir..🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I think Alan lost his early years of his career in Apartheid, if he hadn't I believe he would have ended up one of highest wicket takers.
Apartheid ???
He was already 33 when he came to India.
yes, absolutely
@@amit____singh yes South Africa was not allowed to participate in international sports of the apartheid.
When South Africa re-enter in 1991 he was 25 year old.....I think 3 to 4 years international career lost due to Apartheid
The iconic strip on the nose and the lip cream. Sometimes face cream on the nose. Fire breathing fast bowler
ONE OF MY FAV BOWLING ACTION IN CHILDHOOD
Perfect speed machine, starting from the run up, action to bamboozling deliveries..If he swung the ball, would have added a hundred more wickets easily.. Legend..G.O.A.T..
Had a terrific inswinger
I am not sure why you think that Donald could not swing the ball? Infact, he had stopped taking the new ball because he was unable to control his swing with the new ball
What a bowler man!
And what a South Africa was in 90s😍
That Yorker to Blewett was a thing of beauty. Late inswing, right on his toes, takes middle stump out of the ground.
And Now He made Taskin, Ebadot and Hasan like Himself..
Go Ahead Donald❤️
Go Ahead Bangladesh 🇧🇩❤️
Now we depend on fast bowler more than spinners
Daamnn... That action..!!!
Lovely bowling action and many balls are exactly to the middle stump. Precise and absolutely treat to watch😍. Missing those days.
Kya Din the wo... 😚😚
our head bowling coach 💪🇧🇩
Can we also take a moment to recognize what an amazing wicketkeeper Dave Richardson was?
Yeah south Africa had always produced best wicket keepers.
Dave is still my favorite, even after beast batsmen keepers like ABD and QDK arrived.
Now this man our bowling leader❤️🇧🇩
My favourite Bowler .... i copied his style during my bowling. but could'nt get much wickets :-P
Mayur Jadhav hehe same here bro. Whenever I copied his action, I got outswing whereas for inswing, I used to copy Jason Gillespie. For no swing, McGrath. :') incredible days they were!
Rahul Gautam Yes, with his action it looks like that one would predominantly get outswing but interestingly the genius used to get Inswing.
Did you remember to don the war-paint?
Don't worry guys, you appreciated him, that a good thing..Donald is bestest swing bowler in history of Cricket.
I copied macgrha, akhter.. akhter action good for me
Absolutely pure beautiful bowling action and form. That in swinging yorker though !!
Great action...Legend player...Destructive bowler...Allan Donald👏👏👍👍
Love from Bangladesh। Bangladesh Bowling coach Alan Donalt.
Ohh Donald!! Beautiful action..that blewett delivery was magnificent
Add Brett Lee to the list. What a beautiful run up to the wicket and smooth action for bowling at express speeds!
Add Shane Bond too
Who did not try to copy his Bowling Action ??
I tried to copy a lot specially the jump.
Dale steyn copying his action🔥
cos there's only 1 allan Donald ( pace bowling one and only legendary allan Donald) in this world my friend ..
Chris Morris
Me tooo and my friends
Sometimes I loved watching South African cricket mainly because they had some exquisite bowling actions. Alan Donald, Shaun Pollock and Pat Symcox bowling actions were delight to watch. Paul Adams action was weird but was unique.
Lance klusener u missed in this list friend.
Makhaya Ntini as well
Every cricket lover has imitate his bowling actiotion once in life , I m also one of them 😊😊😊
Donald is an unparalleled bowler ever. No one frm the prime westindies or wasim era or bretlee could bowl like him. Many fast bowlers came but he was unplayable, least sixes have been hit against his pace balling.
The most beautiful bowling action of all time.
The King of Red Ball.
72 Test Matches, 330 Wickets.
Lethal and No Mercy.
I just feel that he should have played more than 120 Test Matches.
One my all time favourite.
The Legend Fast Bowlers.
Allan Donald.
Test Cricket was once very exciting. McGrath, Warne, Wasim, Waqar, Murali, Walsh, Ambrose, Donald, Lara, Ponting, Anwar, Sachin, Rahul, Inzamam, Sangakara, Waugh, Kallis, Lee, Akhter..... So many names...
When I was a kid,watching this man bowling was equivalent to horror for me..
Took away ganguly so many times.
Frightening and fearsome opponent .
He, Kallis, Klusener, Mkhaya Ntini, Shaun Pollock, Gibbs, Gary Kirsten, Nicky Boye,,, the mighty Safrican team ever
Lucky to see him in bangladesh bowling coach.After he arrived bangladesh getting a big support from pace bowling unit. He make them masterpiece 🔥
My favorite bowler, and I love test cricket
“..And there’s that familiar celebration”
“..and that familiar duck”
Lol 😂😂😂
Yep I chuckled on that as well 😂
Literally too quick for every batsman he faced there.
Memories refreshed.... Allan Donald steaming in... School days are back...
I remember Australia won series by 2-1 and also remember one of odi series match in which oz chased 284 (that time chasing 284 was a Everest climbing even against Zimbabwe ) and I became big fan of Bevan thereafter.
One of the greatest bowlers of all time. Such a beautiful bowling action and his deliveries were just brilliant and full of fire. His celebrations were the best too- went well with his war paint.
That time South Africa team was best in cricket world
The never won the word cup though
Ariful Hoque South Africa actually lost the test series 1-2 to the Aussies here in home conditions.
Although SOUTHAFRICA didnt won the world cup but the world knows that in 1992, 96 & 99 were SOUTHAFRICAN WORLD CUP. LEGENDARY SIR HANSIE CRONJE WAS THE MAN BEHIND IT WHO MASTERED IT.
@@naveed8022 so what they demolished other teams so many times
@Flaturtha the Numidian let's not forget India has the most match fixers in history
The white lightening! Still remember him clean bowled tendulkar with inswingers! Damn such a pure simple beautiful bowling action! Highly underrated bowler!
Every bowler has bowled sachin on inswingers 😜
Golden era of the world cricket.
White Lightning.Poetry in motion. He was the most naturally devastating bowler. So easy on the eyes a joy to watch him shred through teams.
My God! White lightning indeed! Pure pace! 👌👌👌👌
White lightning strikes.... The golden 90s. Allan Donald a rare jewel indeed.
Days when LEGEND SIR ALLAN DONALD deliveries were unplayable. World's best bowler ever to play cricket. Love from india 😘😘😘
What's about Wasim Akram???
Azammel Mondal chill, he is the best for him. Akram is not the proven best, he is among the best with McGrath, Ambrose, Donald and many more.
i allways remembered if you stuffed up the catch the look on Allan Donalds face was priceless, devastating blower he was in his prime. one of the best.
Most Beautiful action
Allen Donald - the greatest bowler and one of the most beautiful bowling in the world
Most beautiful and smooth bowling action ever seen.
Donald, like all the greatest fast ballers of all time, was a showman through and through. Every ball was an event. Arguably one of the most entertaining cricketers of all time, and a mega, mega bowler - up there with the very best of all time.
There will never be another Dave Richardson
Michael Sparks yes there will, it’s not an uncommon name .....
@@frankmachin5438 lol
Absolutely mesmerized by Donald's run-up. Smooth as silk...and in a split-second the smoothness transitions to a delivery with the sole purpose of destroying the batsman.
beautiful action classic follow through
Beautiful bowling action
The best bowling action of all time ❤
He is making Bangladesh pace bowling unit world class. Thank you donald. Love to see him near the boundary rope. 💝
Great, great bowler. That calm, almost effortless run up had shades of Holding in it.
And now he single handedly revolutionised the Bangladesh pace bowling attack by his coaching skill.
Best bowling coach for bangladesh
brave batsmen who face him without a grill on their helmets
Sultan Zarawani: Hold my beer🍺😂
The best " BOWLING ACTION" in the history of the game
Andy Bichel, Alan donald my favourite bowling actions
Top class fast bowler with simple bowling action
He is one of the greatest pacers of all time
He is now Bangladesh Bowling Coach 🙌🇧🇩
#Great Coach🖤
Magnificent action for such a tall man.
There are many great bowling pairs in cricket history -
Akram - Younis
Warne- Mcgrath
Muralitharan - Vaas
Anderson- Broad
Walsh - Ambrose....
And many more
But I always loved watching Donald and Pollock in tandem.
Great sight to the eyes.....
White lightning. Wow...would have sent players like Kohli and Rohit to cleaners with his bowling and pitches like these.
Donald,bond,Steyn....handsome bowling actions
