Took 6 for not very many against the bunch of kids that currently are the Zimbabwe cricket team, which enabled him to equal Courtney Walsh's reocrd of 519 Test wickets.
Obviously a class bowler (although I still reckon he's a chucker) and everyone will play on the lower number of Tests he has played (although overs bowled are probably on a par/higher than Walsh) - many will make the mistake of assuming in years to come that highest number of wickets = best ever bowler.
Always a difficult one to call and different generations always come up with different answers. For me, purely on who I have seen, my choice would have to be the late Malcolm Marshall, a fantastic bowler and a gentleman.
Any other views?

He is definatly one of the best all time bowlers. I dont think he is a chucker at all. I have a serious problem with my arm and i get pulled up in matches for chucking when i know im not, it just looks like i am, so i know how he feel with that. The fact that very few batsmen in the world can cope with him means he has to be one of the best of all time. He is certianly by far the best i have seen.
