South Africa bowling coach Allan Donald on Tuesday called his country's current pace attack the best he has seen, as they fine-tune ahead of a three Test series against Australia. Donald in his prime was one of the best fast bowlers ever seen in Test cricket, ripping through opposition batsmen with partner Shaun Pollock, but even he admitted the current crop was a league above.
‘I would have to say that, yes. I'm not just saying that, because I was part of an attack with Shaun Pollock and myself and a few others, and I say that humbly and respectfully, I think this is as good as it gets,’ he said.
South Africa arrived in Australia with the aim of consolidating their position as the number one Test team, which they earned in August with a series triumph in England.
