10 great bowlers and their most feared batsmen
Bowlers often had tough times while facing some of the legendary batters in the history.
7. Brett Lee – Jacques Kallis
The former Australian speedster named the South African legend Jacques Kallis as the most complete cricketer during a chat show with Pommie Mbangwa on Cricbuzz. Lee who was one of the quickest bowlers in his time made batsman shiver with his furious pace.
Jacques Kallis who was one of the most complete all-rounders in his playing days scored more than 10,000 runs in both Tests and ODIs and has grabbed 292 and 273 wickets in both the formats. He also has most centuries after Sachin Tendulkar in the Test cricket.
Here’s what Lee said “I have always said that Sachin was the best batsman ever, but in my opinion the best cricketer that game has seen, and I would add that I haven’t seen Gary Sobers play, I have watched highlights and all, but from the players I have watched and played against, it has to be Jacques Kallis. He was the greatest complete cricketer. Kallis could open the bowling or play just as a batsman. He also caught those many catches at slips.”
