Better bowler than fellow Kiwi Herbert Marshall. No question.

May did bat at 3 often especially early in his test career so he could go there. Stan McCabe could then rival Martyn at 5 and would get my vote.

Don't know if MM the 2nd makes it.

Maybe he does but is just very underrated.

Stuart MacGill, Morne Morkel, Angelo Mathews, Damien Martyn

Not sure there's much in it between McCabe and Martyn, though Stan is probably the more legendary name. See if there's any further endorsement. Actually, McCabe has the second highest average of any M with 2000 runs. I've put McKenzie in by virtue of average.
