Who's jumping out at you already off the top of your head?
Stuart BroadHOST
Gosh, Warnie, Malinga, Steyn, Jimmy Anderson, uh, McGrath, Pollock, Rabada, Mitchell Johnson, Stark, Hazlewood, Cummins.
Jos ButtlerHOST
[laughs] It's a good top 10 already.
Stuart BroadHOST
Yeah, pretty, pretty solid.
Stuart BroadHOST
McGrath-
Jos ButtlerHOST
McGrath
Stuart BroadHOST
... and Pollock.
Stuart BroadHOST
Actually, weirdly, I was clearing out the basement last night, and I've got a few random bits of memorabilia at home, but not, not much.
Mark HowardHOST
I'm serving two masters, Fox and Super Sport, so gotta do some work on the Super Sport pregame with a couple of their commentators.
Mark HowardHOST
But I've also gotta do a pitch report with the great Shaun Pollock for Fox, which gets sent back and which you will see in Australia.
Mark HowardHOST
Welcome to the middle of the Kingsmead Ground here in Durban.
Mark HowardHOST
How good is this? And also probably interview it seems to be Alex Carey.
Simon HughesHOST
Uh, Vincent van der Bijl, who I played with at, at Middlesex, uh, often named as one of the finest overseas players that's played.
Simon HughesHOST
Um, Shaun Pollock came from Natal.
Simon HughesHOST
Kevin Pietersen came from Natal.
Simon HughesHOST
You know? Uh, fantastic h- hotbed of cricket, and suddenly it seems, uh, almost like a cricket wasteland, uh, that people aren't gonna come and watch a, a game like this.
Joel CaineHOST
Yeah.
Mike WhitneyGUEST
Uh, I kept hearing the commentators, the South African commentators, Shaun Pollock and these guys, in the first couple of days saying, "Sunday will be the big day.
Mike WhitneyGUEST
People will go down to the beach in Durban in the morning, and then they'll turn up at the cricket in the afternoon." There's hardly been anybody there.
Mike WhitneyGUEST
I think there's been a, you know, a, a fair few people in, in the members stand and a sprinkling around the ground.
Joel CaineHOST
Yeah.
Mike WhitneyGUEST
Uh, I kept hearing the commentators, the South African commentators, Shaun Pollock and these guys- In the first couple of days saying Sunday will be the big day.
Mike WhitneyGUEST
People will go down to the beach in Durban in the morning, and then they'll turn up at the cricket in the afternoon.
Mike WhitneyGUEST
There's hardly been anybody there.
Glenn McGrathHOST
Yes.
Jason GillespieHOST
Um, so my number five, um, is Shaun Pollock.
Jason GillespieHOST
Um, wonderful player.
Jason GillespieHOST
If all-time list with, if you combine one day cricket, um, and Test cricket, he go- he jumps up to number two in my all-time list for across all formats.
5 MINS LATER
Glenn McGrathHOST
... is unbelievable.
Glenn McGrathHOST
Um, hopefully we'll see in this series because he's, I think he's something very special.
Glenn McGrathHOST
Uh, number two, I put, uh, our good mate Polly, Shaun Pollock.
Glenn McGrathHOST
You know, 108 test matches, 421 wickets.
John MaythamHOST
It gets dark very early in Durban, even if it's a great wea- weather day, and often it's not a great weather day, and so you get well short of the statutory number of hours in a day.
John MaythamHOST
And I loved your support for Shaun Pollock's proposal that in a situation like that, you have a pink ball because it is easier to see it, so you can get more cricket as the light is fading.
Neil ManthorpeGUEST
And he's been going on about it for over 10 years, John.
Neil ManthorpeGUEST
Um, and both teams would have to agree to it.
Ian HealyHOST
But this test series is, you know, worth so much profile.
Andrew McCullochHOST
Do, do South Africa possess the best ever all-rounders in your eyes ever? Your Lance Klusens, your Jacques Kallises, even Shaun Pollock to a degree, he's could bat.
Ian HealyHOST
Yes.
Ian HealyHOST
Uh, the only f- person who didn't think he was great with the bat was Shaun Pollock- [laughs]
Andrew McCullochHOST
Yeah
Ian HealyHOST
... himself.
Ian HealyHOST
Uh, it's probably harder to play five tests in India, which they're gonna do after this, this summer, the Australians are going there, but this test series is, you know, worth so much profile.
Andrew McCullochHOST
Do, do South Africa possess the best ever all-rounders in your eyes ever? Your Lance Klusens, your Jacques Kallises, even Shaun Pollock to a degree, he's good bat.
Ian HealyHOST
Yes.
Ian HealyHOST
Uh, the only s- person who didn't think he was great with the bat was Shaun Pollock-
Andrew McCullochHOST
Yeah
Ian HealyHOST
... himself.
