#6 Shaun Pollock (South Africa)

Shaun Pollock

Shaun Pollock was South Africa’s answer to Glenn McGrath in the 90s. Pollock was one of the finest exponents of line and length bowling. The medium pacer was spot on with his pitch map and bowled his out-swingers from a nagging length to induce the batsman’s edge.

Pollock came very close to the crease at the point of delivery and bowled wicket to wicket. He is best remembered as one of the most economical fast bowler in ODIs.

The immensely accurate Pollock played the perfect foil to the pacy Allan Donald. While Donald was an outright strike bowler, Pollock kept a tight lid on the opposition's run scoring rate.
