Wasim was arguably the most skilful fast bowler of all time. As an Indian watching cricket in the 80's and 90's I used to envy Pakistan's ability to produce such terrific pacemen. Ive seen him bowl amazing spells on the deadest of pitches in Asia. A real magician with the ball
He would always be in bowler's XI
Once there was a great wizard WAZ. Never was watching fast bowling so exciting since Thumping Thommo, Dennis the Menace or Maco the Waco but WAZ always had way too many tricks in his bag. Never two deliveries were the same was only his game. Really miss watching those Greats from the past as no new fast men seems to have the passion of the Olds.
