Former Pakistan skipper Waqar Younis says Dale Steyn is among the top three fast bowlers of all-time and reckons the South African has it in him to “hit the top” if he keeps going for a another 2-3 seasons.
“Dale Steyn is definitely in the top three for me. And if he keeps going like this for the next two-three seasons, he’ll hit the top. Not many bowlers have swung the ball at his pace and have had his fitness,” Waqar said.
“I don’t want to offend anyone because there have been some seriously great bowlers in the last four—five decades that I can remember. We’ve had Imran Khan, Kapil Dev, Dennis Lillee, Glenn McGrath, Wasim Akram, Michael Holding and so many big names,” he was quoted as saying by the IPL website.
