The whole Australian team was legendary at that period. Hayden, Ponting, Gilchrist, Langer, Gillespie, Warne, Mcgrath, Lee and more. Tough team to beat in any conditions especially in Australia!
So you mean to say that if Sangakkara becomes the selector of Shri Lanka they will start winning everything? Clearly prasad is doing a good job with the team we have now. We are winning everything and a semifinal in WC.
many of us have already knew considering his speed, line-length, accuracy. He was dominating so called legendary( as claimed by Indian people ) batsman.

Ah memories... I was in Ronda, Andalucía, withheld my mate Dave MacDonald. It was December 1999. We are both Queenslanders, but I wanted lee in the team, but Dave, being a hard core qlder winter Michael kasperwiez, a decent fast bowler. Dave said lee would fail, I said he’d take a five for. I remember us going to an Internet cafe and seeing the 5 for.., it was satisfying
Well every debutant gets a five for against India. The difference between Brett Lee and others is that he carried on this form throughout. That is a rare feat.
Let's be honest...brett lee is a brilliant fast bowler, soon to be legend... Indians had some decent pacers but they never had support/they were the supporting cast.. bcoz of spin-reliance. And so we are just catching up...Bhumra/Shami/Saini,Nagarkoti etc and many to come..
I'm fortunate enough to live in an era which witnessed best cricketers, footballers and tennis players. All these great sportsmen made my childhood colourful.
22 years back, I watched this scintillating contest and I told my friend that this boy will go on to become a legend when it comes to fiery fast bowling.
Thanks for all the effort and hard work Brett Lee, from an Englishman who appreciates the skills you displayed. And whenever I've heard interviews he comes across as a decent guy,a class act.
what a perfect time for a batter / bowler to debut! it was still something new for us at that point to have someone who can be this quick. Lee was absolutely elegant yet brutal.
I think Brett Lee's average keeps him from being considered greater. This is explained by his speed, imho. He took 300+ wickets in under 80 tests. He was a wicket taker and a great exponent of how to play cricket hard but fair
@@chriswatson7965 That's where his average gets good! I don't think there's many test bowlers that have a much better ODI average. Still, I wouldn't mind taking 300 test wickets
I think in Tests as 3rd option, if the conditions are good for bowling - McGrath and Warne get to feast, if things get tough then Lee was used more. He's def. a better bowler than his Test avg.
what a bowler , one of the best fast bowler to ever play cricket , bowling yorkers like waqar on debut means a lot , lee and shoaib akhtar best best fast bowlers
As good as he was, I think injuries and the "Steve Waugh philosophy" towards him as a bowler conspired to reduce his legacy to that of a very good bowler from potentially an all timer. The fast, short and often wild style was all Waugh. Lee was more than that as seen in the beginning of his career and in glimpses at the end too.
The Aussie fast bowlers of today don’t have a inch of what the Aussie fast bowlers of the past had. Even Mitchell Johnson, so good at home, so poor everywhere else (barring one tour to SA). Brett Lee was one of the all time greatest genuine quicks around the world in any condition.
Still remember reading statics of practice matches and reading brett lee getting 4-3 wicket every march use to think who is that guy performing against India.. Then get to see brett lee debut .. Great bowler Love from India..
I remember playing against him about 2 weeks before this. You cannot fathom just how quick he actually was. The keeper was a pitch & a half back & taking everything on the rise above his head. He hit one of our guys so hard you could see the Kookaburra logo on his chest.
@@mervstash3692 the kookaburra logo isn't like a petruding thing on the ball, it's just a different colour, so it's impossible that it would leave a mark, not to mention that at that level of cricket you would have a chest guard, and your saying it left a mark THROUGH his shirt? And you think bret Lee would be playing club cricket 2 weeks before playing for Australia, no, he would've been training with the Australian team.
@@moneymaker2024 And 2013 AUS tour of India was a bit too funny. I think the humour and laughter the Australians provided in 2013 had the capacity to kill some cricket fans due to excessive laughter.

Was a terrific Aussie lineup during end '99.......When B Lee came in, he was notorious of being the fastest bowler on earth clocking speeds of 150 kph regularly.......he became a regular since then.

I was there that day. First time I'd ever sat in the top tier of the southern stand. Amazing view of the whole ground, though I still preferred my usual position out of the sun in the northern stand.
One of the fastest bowler of all time with Soaib Akhter. Lee's bowling style is so nice. Cricket world will miss him for his tremendous entertaining. I love Australian cricket from earlier of my childhood. Almost all of Aussies I like. Im fan of David Warner. I cant stop enjoying when Aussies game is ongoing. I try to enjoy every of Australia innings so far. Australia cricket has mixed with my blood. If I ever been to Australia.....Golam Rabbani from Bangladesh.

Brett Lee had the most beautiful bowling action ever!
Glenn McGrath?
I'd rank Shane Bond at #1, Shoaib Akhtar at #2, Brett Lee at #3 :)

I would say that dale steyn, shane bond and brett lee had the most beautiful action ever.
