10 bowlers from the 90s era who we would have loved to watch in the IPL

#2 Curtly Ambrose

Curtly Ambrose bowls during his devastating 7/1 spell vs Australia in 1993

West Indies went into a steady and seemingly perpetual decline in the 1990s and became a pale shadow of the much-feared world world-beating of the 1980s. Even the number of lethal fast bowlers they kept producing began to dwindle. But, they still had a very much feared pace bowler in Curtly Ambrose.

Ambrose was not only fast and tall, but also clever and deadly accurate. His tally of 225 wickets in 176 ODIs is highly impressive and what is even more striking is his economy rate of 3.48 runs per over, which shows how difficult he was to hit. On his day, the man from Antigua could sweep away the batting line ups like a Tsunami, as he did against Australia with a magical 7/1 spell in a test at Perth in 1993.

Although pitches in India do not traditionally favour bounce, Ambrose would still be able to generate plenty of it, thanks to his 6 feet 7 inches tall frame. That alone would surely have made life difficult for many batsmen, especially for the domestic cricketers who are not used to such high-quality bowling.
