The one duel with Atherton he is referring to, Athe was caught when England were 82/1 but was given not out. Bad luck to AD, history won't remember that one. Was a probable turning point.
Underrated? Batsman in the 90's peed in their pants. Just check his record against all the top batsman of his time. He massacred them. Bowled many balls over 155 km/hr with lethal swings. Because he was from South Africa media didn't vocally promote him like an Australian or English or an Indian.
Post is four years late but I also think he is underrated simply because he seldomly if ever gets picked by cricketers in a World XI- whereas Akram, McGrath and Ambrose get picked by many
Faster than Kapil Dev but Allan Donald could match Brett Lee and Shoaib Akhtar. I am not including the quality of bowling. Both Brett lee and Akhtar can't match him.
That jump at the crease! Perfect action

ALLAN DONALD, Undoubtly most underrated bowler.

How quick was Shaun Pollock
He was fast medium bowler, averaging speed of 130km. His length and line was consistent.
@@ArkadyRenko1 shaun reduced his speed he was quick in his early days
As quick as Venkatesh prasad
