Whose bowler’s action do you like the most?

I like the action of a player from Sri Lanka. I do not know the name. But I watched the highlights (SL vs NZ). His action is side on and brings the arm almost like horizontally. He is a lot of pace. Can anybody help out?

My favourite was Waqar Younis’s action.

Also, I like Muralitharan and Brett Lee’s action. What do you think so?

** Congratulations me for reaching my almost 700 posts. Any compliments about me?**

Actually i like sami’s action too. It is fast and compact, just like a japanese cartoon.. just like himself. Woh aur baat haiy keh it hardly ever yields any result..

Wasim Akram, Imran Khan, Curtly Ambrose (such a high arm action, from such a tall guy with such long arms.......the balls were released at somewhere around 2,5 metres height!)

Someone posted an article in one of the thread about Imran Khan. I think it was written by Osman Samiudden, here's what he has to say about Khan sahib's action.

"with an action so beautiful it deserved a catwalk" :D

Re: Which bowler's action do you like the most?

Serious reply:)

Wasim Akram, Imran Khan, Malcom Marshal and Lillee.

Worst action: I think this should be globally unanimous - Kapil Dev. :D Ugliest action of all. I remember even Indians used to hate Kapil's action and loved Khan Sahib's action, despite of the extreme rivalry in 80s.
