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

#7 Darren Gough

Darren Gough spearheaded the English attach with his swing and pace

Unlike many great fast bowlers in the history, Darren Gough was not over six feet and hence could not obtain the bounce that a very tall bowler like Glenn McGrath got naturally. But that did not stop this Yorkshire-born bowler from becoming England’s most effective bowler in both formats for almost a decade. He was constantly troubled by a spate of injuries which forced him to cut short his test career but when fit, he was dazzling.

With fine changes in pace and effective swing, Gough often got the better of the batsmen and cemented his position in the team as the leader of the bowling attack. Along with Andrew Caddick who ably supported him, he formed a reliable bowling partnership. Towards the end of his career, the right armer’s effectiveness diminished but by then, he had already accomplished enough to be regarded as one of the greatest pace bowlers in the history of England.

Gough has 229 wickets in 58 tests and 235 wickets in just 159 ODIs to his name and would have been an impressive pick for any team.
