ravishingravi Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 If I had to pick the most complete fast bowler, Pat Cummins would be right at the top. Pace, bounce, conventional swing or reverse swing. This is a true champion bowler. Pity we lost him for so many years after his brilliant debut. Watching him rattle SA today on flat deck has been fun. Link to comment

My favorite non-Indian bowler since Australia toured India and I saw him bowl in that series. Hard working lion-heart bowler. And can and does bowl absolute jaffas out of nowhere, frequently.

prudent_kreeda Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I think RABADA is the top one Jimmy Cliff, prinzo and MechEng 1 2 Link to comment

Jamadagni Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 How are people missing Rabada? He is by far the best bowler. Cummins is a lesser version of Rabada. Link to comment

Rabada is pretty awesome too. But for me, Cummins has that x-factor. Its like VVS and his elegance, he may not have the stats, but some of us simply loved his batting. Link to comment
Ellipsism Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Indians overrate Steyn and Starc. Statc droos his arm, and consequently doesn’t generate much bounce considering he’s 6’6. In fact he’s one dimensional, but it works. Rabada is the best out of the lot, tall, gets bounce, reverse, conventional seam etc. mark my words he’ll retire as a one of the greats of the game. Cummins, I also rate higher than Starc. But Starc as of now is ahead, but long term definitely Cummins. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Rabada hands dow.No contest. He always provided crucial break throughs. Averaging 18 for this year. 20 last year. Highest wicket taker this year so far. 2nd highest last year. Jimmy anderson was good last year. NOt now. You should look at Australia as a unit. Starc gets the tail Hazlewood top Cummins middle. Lyon also helps with them. Link to comment
