Vinay Ko-mar and Joginder Sharma would have smashed all records if they got a longer run.

 

Then, there could have been Stuart Binny and Ashok Dinda.

Mad respect for Binny and Jogi for what they did to Bangladesh kitties and Pakistani

Though they didn't bowl together in too many matches but for me Srinath, Zak and Nehra in 2003 WC was the best Indian pace bowling attack in ODI's. All 3 were capable of picking wickets while being economical. 

The current pair of B's are probably the best death bowlers we have had and could go on to become our best pair if they improve their wicket taking abilities with the new ball.

dude bumrah has enough capability to take early wickets as he finds outside edge more often due to away movement

When Bumrah made his debut his stock ball was the inswinger but he has kept on improving his skills with the new ball and can now bowl the one that hold its line. But I still feel they can do even better. Have high hopes from this pair in LOI's.

theres a wonderful theory that bumrah should be tried in test matches because he has a natural inward angle and he uses 'seam' to move ball away from right handers which makes him more deadly for outside edge ...so as the 'seam' is more prominent in red ball than the white ball thus this capability will even increase in test cricket and he can become a deadly test match bowler.....the red ball will even further enhance his wicket-taking ability

 

science+cricket= success

Best I ever saw tbh was Srinath and Prasad in 1996-1997 in England and South Africa

 

Our 3rd seamers were Paras Mhambrey,Dodda Ganesh,David Johnson and at times out of desperation Saurav Ganguly on those tours :facepalm:

 

Trust me if we had atleast one half decent 3rd seamer we could have won atleast 2 rests in those 2 series....in fact we almost won in the 3rd Test I believe in Johannesburg

Shami and Bumrah are first 2 bowlers who avg below 25 in ODIs for India playing at same time. But they don't play many matches together.

 

Ideally Shami(24) Bumrah(22) Ishant (30) would be our best averaging set of bowlers playing together. Add Bhubneswar, Kuldeep and Chahal to the mix, these should be our best set overall with Ashwin and Jadeja as backup.

sri/zak/nehra were also quick. any one of them capable of giving a match winning spell. But ran into the Aussie team at its peak and weak kneed batting
