I saw Harris in the QANTAS lounge a year or two ago and told him without doubt the greatest ball I've ever seen. Better than Warney's to Gatting. Gatting didn't know what to expect and wasn't prepared. But Cook (opener of the decade) had seen a whole 1st Innings of Harris and still looked hapless.

That was an incredible amount of swing. This one from Hilfenhaus won't make the list but it was an absolute beauty https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdZg1ZE4G-I

Any ball that goes through Jonny Bowledstow's gate probably shouldn't make the list :laughing:

No 1 is right but the one that gave me most pleasure was Johnson bowling Broad first ball at the MCG.

So many unbelievable ones - nice work. Can never get over Johnson to Cook in Adelaide 2013...you can be forgiven for missing that Honourable for Anderson to Kraigg Brathwaite, I think? A searing in-swinger from 2-3 years back
