Coach of Bangladesh National Team 🇧🇩. He worked really well with our seamers and seamers improved exceptionally well❤

Alan Donald had one of the most cleanest actions in cricket. I remember that ball to Tendulkar which bowled him. What a ball!!. Just sheer pleasure watching him bowl. One of the all time greats !! He is a legend!

I used to copy ambrose with the bell ringing arm action 🤣

I'm South African but grew up in Birmingham UK. And Warwickshire was my local cricket club. I first saw Allan Donald bowl in 1989, and I was blown away by his speed, accuracy & total commitment. I was so proud he came from the country of my birth, especially as it was a sad time for SA, & 2 years before they were readmitted into international sport (due to apartheid). I watched him play many times @ county level & in test match cricket over the years & he always gave 200% (sadly not all do)...he was the best fast bowler I've ever seen, & he was the hardest working too (coincidence? 🤔) Allan dankie vir die herinneringe, en vir alles wat jy aan Warwickshire & Suid-Afrika gegee het!

i used to copy Zulu as his action was a lot easier to copy. donald was sth else - too beautiful to copy lol

If only i had seen this video twenty years ago. Had a tiny Black and white TV with no cable (just Doordarshan) but if i had known of this great man's personality, and his incredible drive to excel, I would have taken up fast bowling in school. Ah well, so great to hear from him now.

I'm a proud Englishman and I have the deepest respect for this great athlete and man. I loved watching him bowl against all the international teams. Inspiring stuff.

This is one of the most informative and filled interviews of respect and acknowledgments to venues, players, people in general that I have to date been privileged to hear. Thank you Alan Donald (White Lightening) for what you have given us, and what you continue doing for all. Arohanui from New Zealand.

Totally, agree, Allan comes across really well.

My childhood fav fast bowler !!!! What an action he had !!! And that fearsome look with zinc oxide on his nose and lips !! Out and out gentleman though !!!

One of the most intimidating bowlers ever!

Great to see him again

I have been a fan since childhood and I was lucky to be able to see him from a few meters away during the T20 WC in Dhaka. He is not only one of the greatest fast bowlers of all time but a Genius. This guy is so passionate about the art of fast bowling and everything else about it that one could easily tell he is a 110% professional and a big sports freak. There aren't too many like him other than Michael Holding. Having him as the bowling coach of Bangladesh is an honor. Hope to see you with us for many years to come. Thank you Allan Donald!

Absolutely legendary this man. Greatest South African bowler ever

A wonderful interview. He was legend and have a finest and smooth action. Love from India Donald Sir

I’m a right arm fast bowler. This is so helpful. Donald is an absolute legend. Really miss Donald vs Atherton rivalry.

Lovely to hear these stories from one of the game's greats!

Every word is gold from a great of the game

The most smoothest and lethal bowler of all times....

My favourite cricketer growing up in SA. 🌩

ALLAN DONALD and MICHAEL HOLDING : Both have rare combo of " GRACEFUL and FEARSOME" ,i just love them watching...

Classy and fearsome bowler for any batsmen. Can't forget Sachin's stumps flying, the most painful moment for every cricket loving kid in India.

How good was that ! I was lucky to have seen Allan many times for Warwickshire, what a top, top bowler, competitor and all round bloke!

As a boy from Pakistan, I use to look forward to this pacers spell.

Beautiful action , pace, swing and aggression , what more can you ask for from a fast bowler

In today's cricket nobody is alike "Allan Donald"❤...what a beautiful bowling action he had. He was accurate, he had Pace, Bounce, Attitude, Agressiveness, he was Lethal, Competitive words will fall short to describe about him...He was the real threat for any Cricketing Nation..Immense Respect for this Legend ❤..Love from INDIA.

Very delighted to have this man as the pace bowling coach of Bangladesh. Our pace bowling has improved a lot since his joining.

We will miss you sir.Please come back as a coach for Bangladesh team. We 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩 never forget you.

One of my very favorite fast bowlers I loved to watch. I loved his aggression and passion 👍great interview

Probably the best fast bowler in the world. I don’t think cricket can witness such bowlers in future. He was one of its kind. Had great memories of his famous battles with Tendulkar and other great batsmen.

Wasim Akram to Allan "I'm gonna kill you" lol wooow I remember all these battles as young as I was but yoooh the Mike Atherton one lol was just amazing I loved it.

He has totally reverse technique of bowling than Wasim Akram or Waqar Younis. Wasim always said to bowl from close to stumps, Alan is saying he was comfortable to bowl from far. Both are great though! Everyone has his own greatness formula.

Alan Donald was one of the worlds finest bowlers!!

What a champion he was. Few better when he had his tail up. His duels with the Waugh boys are stuff of legend. Encapsulated almost a bygone era where you'd tune in for 1 guy because you knew something special was happening.

He is now our bolwing coach🇧🇩

I love his run up action each and every thing

It is delighte to watch his running and bowling action

My favorite bowling action of all time after having watched cricket for more than 24 years.

Great technical insight by Allan Donald on his own bowling action & its progression. As a teenager I just saw his sheer pace & aggression which I used to imitate as I was quite thin like he appears to be but wasn't nearly as fast! I did once knock over a left-handers off stump with a delivery by a tennis ball when I was at my best aged about 15 but didn't play much thereafter. Never played too much with a real cricket ball owing to lack of protective equipment & fear of injury. Used to love watching Donald but wish he had maintained his pace in his latter years, although as he's explained maybe it was part of his development that suited him to prolong his career.

The sound and start was very good.

One of the greatest for sure😊

his smoothness in action really gives a glimpse of Michael Holding both off em whispering death

He was tearaway fast bowler..Excellent to watch him on action..

Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩

He's for sure quick as any good fast bowler in today's time .And look at how smooth his bowling action is.. that's what is dearly missing in today's generation of cricket..He is and will remain the best fast bowler to me ever...grew up imitating him...

I always remember for his signature celebration. None did that celebration like he did it. Jumping & clapping his hand around his knee. His bowling was tremendous.

most underated bowler in cricket. What a match winner

Simply the legend...ammazing action ..it was a greatest thrill to see his bowling reply with white patch on the nose..it's like a tiger approaching the batsmen..when the Donald bowls the batsmen fear of duck..live long Donald .. love from India..

Wonderful interview

Allan Donald terrified me as a child! His battles with my hero SRT were unforgettable. Giant of the game!

Donald is my most fav best cricketer of all time since i startd watching cricket early 92 93 or sumthn against zimbabwe.. others r hansie ,gibbs,boucher

For me Alan Donald and Shane bond two of the best fast bowling actions I've seen in the game of cricket

I just love his action.

One of the my favourite 👍

He is a class act. Grew up watching his deadly yorkers and inswingers

Wow. This is seriously cool. Nice upload.

Thanks sir for making Shariful from a run machine to a wicket taker bowler.

his bowling action was so beautiful

Changed the whole scenario of Bangladesh pace bowling unit, Thanks legend! 🇧🇩

All time great fast bowler...totally legend...

Legend & had Best Fast bowling Action

An absolute legend !

I loved it when clive rice used the disdain greeting.It is a sign of a humble man

White Lightning ⚡ Lived up to that name!Respect!

If you want to get your money's worth just to watch a spell from a high class fast bowler there was probably no one more exciting than him in my generation! Beautiful action, sheer pace, accuracy, bounce, movement- just a full pacakge!

One of the most honest interviews 😃

If Great Sachin made me start watching cricket in early 90s, it was legendary Donald who actually made me pick up fast bowling as my cricketing skill. Right from my run up to the crease til final action of delivering the bowl and then the follow through, still have a reflection of this wonderful bowler. My all time favourite till I play and thereafter.

I think it says it all that a bowling legend like Brett Lee openly admitted to looking up to Allan Donald and wanting to emulate him. Donald one of the true modern greats that changed the expectations of strike bowling in all forms of the game.

Legend pure and simple

Outstanding 👌

He's now tigers pace bowling coach 🇧🇩

A true fighter they don't produce Sir Alan Donald anymore.. Legend

What a great bowler...the white Lighting...Salute to the Champ

his bowling action looks smooth and beautiful your action is the most beautiful bowling action i ever seen miss you allen you are the beauty

Good classy flawless action

Good importance of becoming an athlete. An ex Pakistani cricketer told me that do come to come sprinting, weights on legs arms and weighted jacket etc to build the fitness, now I think about it it makes you a better athlete. I asked he about change in actions and he told me to do this first. He said a lot of times about come to come sprints after nets or matches

Thanks supersports for the brilliant master class throughout the series

White lightning. What an apt name for a great bowler. On his day one of if not the fastest bowlers of ever seen, with a great action

Allan Donald was an absolute beast back in the day. Pinging deliveries into Mike Atherton full speed just to get under his skin. Athers took it though and eventually saw us home. Good Times. ✌️😎✌️

For a begineer wanting to be a Seamer they just need to follow Allan ... My all time Favourite Bowling Action.

Exactly he was fast & fantastic bowler

Allan Donald to.me you are GOAT ie greatest. Of all time by Steve Irungu Jermaine

Beautiful bowling . Bowling very fast

"I could not swing the all , I was lousy " yeah , tell that to Kieth Arthurten , I remember when Donald bowled him with a fast inswinger in that famous test match.He had such a fantastic action plus he was a tremendous athlete. His record was simply amazing I think injuries slowed him down at the end but he was a really smart bowler , he developed a super slower ball at the end of his career, I remember he outfoxed Robin Smith (The judge) in a county match , he also took an awesome catch and hurt his back in that game. Great bowler and a Supreme Athlete .
