Gary ShanklandHOST
So, player three, I became only the second person to take 10 wickets in a test match in Ings when I took 10 per 74 against Pakistan.
Gary ShanklandHOST
I also famously bowled a 14 over spell in which I dismissed Brian Lara while playing with a heavily bandaged broken jaw.
Gary ShanklandHOST
Yeah, got that.
Gary ShanklandHOST
It's okay.
Gary ShanklandHOST
10 for 74 against Pakistan.
Gary ShanklandHOST
Bowled a 14 over, quite famous spell when his face was strapped together because of a broken draw.

And in that spell, he dismissed Brian Lara.
Gary ShanklandHOST
Lee Kumbler.
Matty JohnsHOST
Can I give you just a really quick example? This might mean absolutely nothing to most people listening.
Matty JohnsHOST
One of the greatest cricketers of all time was a West Indian called Brian Lara.
Matty JohnsHOST
Lara once scored 501 in a game, the most ever.
Matty JohnsHOST
Anyway, he'd become the most famous cricketer in the world.
Matty JohnsHOST
For him, he needed to finally hit that rock bottom.
Matty JohnsHOST
There he was all the time.
Matty JohnsHOST
Brian Lara's underperforming.
Matty JohnsHOST
Brian, he'll come good to underperform.
Blaine SchlossHOST
Well, actually, there probably is.
Blaine SchlossHOST
But I'm going to bank on the fact you haven't put Brian Lara in there.
Blaine SchlossHOST
Really? Yeah.
Blaine SchlossHOST
Wow.
Isaac SmithHOST
Who are you most looking forward to playing with? Because you've got some greats there.
Isaac SmithHOST
You've got Brian Lara, Usman Khawaja, Mike Hussey, Matthew Hayden, these type of guys.
Ash BartyGUEST
Yeah, I've played golf with Brian Lara, and he's an amazing person.
Ash BartyGUEST
Like, he's just an incredible guy, and I can't wait to watch him bat.
Ash BartyGUEST
But I think as well just the sound of Matty Hayden's bat is something different.
MVHOST
There was still an aura about West Indies in '96.
MVHOST
And, and Walsh and Lara were like these, uh, Walsh was almost for me- And then they went to Pune.
MVHOST
Uh, Walsh was almost for me, like, this bowling equivalent of in terms of rhythm, uh, say a Markwood or a Nazrudin in terms of fast bowling actions.
MVHOST
Very, very interesting pick.

SarthakPANELIST
Keeping that Magra kind of-- not for an action, but his wickets were inevitable.
AdityaPANELIST
Yeah.
SarthakPANELIST
आप कुछ नहीं कर सकते। वो wicket लेगा ही। आप कहीं पे कोई भी bat कर ले, वो wicket लेकर रहेगा barring Brian Lara in 2001, barring that one series.
AdityaPANELIST
And he could turn it on glass ना। मतलब famously bowl का paata wicket से। मतलब इतना, that match मतलब is very fresh in my memory। वो 98 में एक one-off test था।
