The West Indies was the sole reason behind the relatively good behavior of Aussie cricketers throughout the 80s and early 90s. They were terrified of them
In a pub in Germany, I met this 55 year old Caribbean man at the bar table. I got drunk and began to talk cricket with him and swore that Curtly Ambrose was the greatest ever fast bowler produced by West Indies. He was quietly sitting there the whole time listening to me with a simple smile on his face. Finally when he got up to leave, he turned around and said "True, kid! Ambrose was great. But guess who was even greater.. Malcolm Marshall".. paid for us both and left... I could only wonder..
Marshall just edges it for me, I think he had a little more guile and variety. But there are times when I think Ambrose is unplayable. Top 2 in my book. The only two guys capable of wearing 3 gold chains without being laughed at. The Ambrose stare wins hands down, though.
@Jayakanth There isn't much in between three men and these three men are Marshall, Ambrose and Garner. The question is which one goes in your world XI? Marshall may have the edge due to the fact he was a more than handy late order batsman with 10 test half centuries and 7 first class hundreds. But then you have Garner who was all but impossible to score off and could pull toe crunching yorkers out of his pocket with ease. And of course Ambrose - a younger Garner. Not easy.
@@AyushLunia13 Ambrose more fearsome with maybe little more pace & bounce , McGrath was torrid for most top order for his immaculate line & lenght at a decent pace and enough bounce to trouble the opposition.... both are superb, no point comparing them with each other

After retirement of Richards and Greendige, Ambrose was the one who stood against Australia, England, South Africa from taking crown out of West Indies
It’s hard to know how quick he actually was because his peak came before speeds were consistently recorded. I would assume he was around 140-150 most of the time but wouldn’t be surprised if he was even quicker some days.
He was mid 130k in the 2nd half of his career. I don't think he was ever a consistently 145k bowler but he must have toched that number often. Ambrose like McGrath was more of a bounce+length bowler.
@@lexsite Yeah....was quicker than mcgrath. Taller too. Horrible to face because you're afraid of being injured, worried about being dismissed and at the same time you have to figure out a way to score runs.

I never saw Ambrose bowling though I wish. I have seen Macgrath and Anderson bowling with accurate line and length. But seeing Ambrose it seems to me that his bowling almost unplayable. Dont know when can we get to see a bowler like Ambrose again.
Mcgrath was more clinical and a miles better bowler than anderson who looked tame in non swinging conditions. Classifying him as a line/ length bowler is an oversimplification.

I really do not blame the present bowlers for not being as good as bowlers of yesteryears. Modern day cricket favours batsmen selfishly. Cruel legside wides, free hit for a no-ball, field restrictions, one bouncer per over, and obviously batting pitches all over the world. Today's bowlers are left with lesser options and heavier penalties. I feel bad for them.
@@guhadebojyoti this is also true, that coupled with Kookaburra balls instead of Dukes does'nt help either. Now you cant eveb use saliva to shine ball and nor can you scratch it either.

Don't get me wrong, Ambrose has magnificent statistics..... but I still don't think they do justice to the kind of bowler he was. He was a mean giant and gave that vibe of being someone who wanted to kill a batsman. Nasty work. His ability to get bounce and zip of a good length even on dead pitches coupled with a pinpoint accurate yorker zeroing in from 7 feet plus made him a batsman's nightmare. Typical West Indian off the feild though, always up for a good laugh and some fun 😊
Ambrose went through entire spells where batsmen would score next to nothing and he'd beat the edge 90 percent of the time. He is the second greatest fast bowler of all time for me, after Marshall, and the greatest player between the late 80s to early 90s. Amazing amazing player
@@meshalsinnen5917 can't agree more. We have to throw Akram in the mix as well. I remember so many spells of Wasim where the catchers let him down. I have seen games where more than 5 catches were put down in the slips of him.

Akram might have had off days but think about the conditions he played in as well as the pathetic slip cordon Pakistan had. Two different styles of bowlers.....

Viv would have in nets, Sanath also did. Sehwag was attacking batsman didn't have much footwork. Stand and deliver. Not sure he would have got too much in Test match to try hit over the top. Probably be coming between his ribs and throat with odd yorker
Around that pace for sure. But his extra bounce and relentless accuracy was awkward from good length where one can neither play forward nor backwards. McGrath used the same formula later.
Look at that fist ✊ holding the ball and those big fingers rolling over the ball. How can batsman see from which way ball coming or going after pitching.
You suddenly realize that the slip catching was so so good for WI throughout that period. They made it look so easy. Hooper, Lara, Simmons... (WC murray was mediocre, by the way) all caught everything and without rolling on the ground (which we see catchers do today after every single catch).
Ambrose was the greatest tall (6'5 and above) fast bowler in test history. Garner just behind him. I rate the non test seamer Big Vince van der Bijl very highly with a fc career average of 16.5. He used to get steepling bounce,was super accurate and moved it both ways. McGrath in the top 5 of the tall brigade.Walsh , Bruce Reid when not injured..
He literally f***ed the Aussies upside down … pontings and haydens lucky to have not faced him …. Give the Aussies Zaheer and irfaans and they become number one 😂😂😂😂
Curtly Ambrose used his height and his pace and extra bounce in a right way. His extra bounce was unpredictable. Real nightmare for the opposition. Regards
There's an whenever u see colours think of us.thats Jenson& Nicholson company ad. Whenever you think fast bowlers in cricket sport u will always think of Windies.
Batting players needs more score for their team & Bowling players needs to restrict them in lowest total. C. Ambose has done that many times for his team.
