Bowling Actions and Annimations

i think a front on action should be in the game for people like flintoff and west indians like collymore. Game looks amazing guys.
 
Here is a video of Asif's action in the Indo-Pak series. People have said that his action is sharper now than it was back then, but it shouldn't be too much different.

*Link deleted after asking Andrew about this*

If LM wants, he can view some videos on google to get an idea of a bowler's action. I saw videos of Anderson, Asif, Afridi, etc.
 
Dudes, we have to get Bhajji! He has the best bowling action in the game! (or the funniest, at least :p)
 
Irfan Khan Pathan (and others)

I have one of Irfan (my favourite bowler). It's attached. Hope it helps! :)

Edit: I have added Zaheer Khan, Ajit Agarkar, Harbhajan Singh, Anil Kumble and Ashish Nehra (though he wasn't in the list).

I'd like to see Vaughan's, Smith's, Jayasuriya's, Sachin's, Macgill's, Afridi's and Dilshan's actions as options for part-timers/lesser known spinners, as their actions are pretty generic, yet unique. Murali, Kumble, Warne, Giles, Vettori, Harbhajan, Symonds and Malik/Mushtaq for full timers.
Edwards/Akhtar/Malinga, Mcgrath, Pollock, Harmison, Jones, Hoggard, Pathan, Collingwood, Ganguly, Bond, Akram, Streak, Asif, Agarkar and Vaas for seamers.
 
I reckon you should definately include Panesar's action, simply because it is the perfect left arm spinners action, therefore you can use it for most people.
 
Right now I think LM is more bothered about getting these animations right instead of fine-tuning them. In actual fact there is too much work to be done in too little time to get run-ups right for all bowlers.

If you ask me this is one of the lesser important features of the game - don't mean to disappoint but LM will only have time to get only a few unique bowling actions into the game.

agree, having a unique action for each bowler will waste too much time but only result a small effect - inefficiency
 
I actually also agree, but I was just commenting on what should be used if he were to do individual actions.
