Others on my favorite fast bowlers list are

Waqar Younis, Allen Donald, Richard Hadlee are 3 Others who could compete with Akram, but I don't think any of the 3 was better than Akram.

I also loved watching Ambrose, Akhtar, Shane Bond, Dennis Lillie(Youtube), Jeff Thompson(Youtube) bowl. They were all terror in their peak time.

I never really liked bowling of Mcgrath, I thought he was boring to watch.

Ditto. Marshall has no match: THE greatest fast bowler of all time.

Marshal > Lillee > Garner/Akram/Ambrose/Holding/Hadlee (in tests that is) They said Fred Truman was virtually unplayable on his day - never saw the Yorkshire man bowl - no comments.

Overall: Murali > Warne > Marshall > Garner/Akram/Ambrose/Holding/Hadlee.

Shane Bond has an amazing record, but he played too few matches to even be in the reckoning.

Walsh doesn't make my list despite the numbers and I rate Kapil Dev much, much lower.

I know the Murali vs Warne debate is endless, but you'd have to vote for Murali simply because his numbers are overwhelming: the countless five and ten wicket hauls and such supreme consistency.

Warne was the 'showman' and the genius of varieties - someone who you wouldn't mind paying to watch.

Marshall was the god of pace.

(ignored from my list are the legends of the bygone days - Truman, Laker etc).

Yea Fred Truman, I missed his name, he is always mentioned to be one of the greatest bowler of the world, alongside George Lohman and Sydney Barnes.
Fred Truman : Bowling : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4QrIdBG1yM
Sydney Barnes : Geoff Boycott talking about him: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NJGLkiioiQ
George Lohmann : No videos of him.

Sydney Barnes to me(looking at his records), was Bradman of Bowling, he can't be surpassed by anyone.

But having watched marshall I am inclined towards him to be the best Fast Bowler of all time.

If you compare records Waqar was better than Wasim
He was the real terror . Wasim benifitted from his bowling from other end .
Togather they both formed worlds deadliest pair of opening bowling .

No not really. Waqar was dropped multiple times because of bad form. Wasim on the other hand kept on playing even when he was the senior citizen in the team. Obviously his stats did suffer as a result and ironically by getting dropped Waqar stats appear better then they should be. Still atleast Wasim ended up making a few records along the way. What did Waqar achieved? Wasim also helped Pakistan win the World cup. Keep in mind that Wasim was also an all rounder and also had the added burden of captaincy for so many years. Waqar was the last man in the batting order and sucked donkey's di*k as a captain.

Wasim was durable.
But for 4 years or so, between 90-94,
Waqar was indeed the premier fast bowler in the world.
He was no 1 in the rankings for a long time.
