Answer:
george alfred lohmann -lrb- 2 june 1865 -- 1 december 1901 -rrb- was an english cricketer , regarded as one of the greatest bowlers of all time .statistically , he holds the lowest lifetime test bowling average among bowlers with more than fifteen wickets and he has the second highest peak rating for a bowler in the icc ratings .he also holds the record for the lowest strike rate -lrb- balls bowled between each wicket taken -rrb- in all test history .he bowled at around medium pace and on the primitive pitches of his time could gain a lot of spin , so that when rain affected the pitch he was invariably quite unplayable .however , against the best batsmen lohmann possessed a great deal of skill and guile , and he could vary his pace , flight and break so deceptively as to worry batsmen on better pitches .he was the finest slip fielder of his time and in county cricket a good enough hard-hitting batsman to score two centuries for surrey and average 25 in 1887 .
