Pakistanis explode (pun intended) in the comments section.

Considering that only good ODI bowler who is playing regularly for India is Bumrah, certainly no. 

[SK_IH]

its a pretty good bowling attack especially after the introduction of two wristys.

It can become best with those bowlers, but India is still missing wicket takers with new ball.

Bhuvi is supposed to do that but unfortunately he has been inconsistent in that regard.But Bhuvi-Bumrah pair is the best we have got and inclusion of any other seamer like Shami destroys the balance of the side.

Shami-bumrah-Hardik triad is more balanced than Bhuvi-Bumrah-Hardik.

Bhuvi deserves to play at the moment for sure

Wont go into the no 1 debate but If u look at the bench strength,  no other team has such luxury.  We have so many options now.  See how Australians are struggling without starc, hazelwood who plays very few short format games due to injuries.

If every team can play their top bowlers in every match things will be a lot different. And we won't be the best.

At the moment india with so many options have a bright future.

For modern day pitches I would place Australia, SA and Pakistan above India. We are comfortably better than Lanka, WI, Eng, BD and marginally ahead of NZ atm. So overall 4th which is better than at any point in our ODI history since may be 2003 WC.

Well we might not be the best ,but Pakistanis for some reason believe they have a the best bowling attack in ODIs.

australia have the bestt fast bowling attack,if ever they are fit that is,and nothing in spin department.(odis)

SA is better right now ,but pakistan??

No way ,Amir is a wicket less wonder himself most days though a great bowler on his day,Hassan needs reverse to do any damage and i am not convinced he can do damage without it.Didn't impress me in the match he played against us one bit .Junaid is hardly someone you would fret ,less said about wahab the better and rumaan raees and others they have shown on International stage are grade A trundlers .

Imad is a poor man's jadeja,shadab has potential but at this stage both kuldeep and chahal are better based on bowling.

 

India is easily up there in the top 3,especially if Bhuvi can continue taking wickets,up front.

It is definitely way better than Pakistan. I think only Australia can challenge us, but do they have such spinners like India has? This considering that Shami, Umesh, Ishant are still not in the team. Or for that matter, Varun Aaron. We still have atleast 3 bowlers yet to make debut who promise to be world class and have genuine pace.

lulz at SA ahaed of india,ya phelukwayo, parnell etc are better than ind bowlers

Tahir is a major factor,but with chahal and kuldeep coming good we will be better,still need to see if they can keep performing,so not going to conclude anything.

 

Also SA's best bowlers are rabada,morkel,Chriss morris,tahir and not phelukwayo,parnell.

Top 3 is India,SA,Australia in no order.

Thier best attack is morkel,morris,rabada,tahir though.So,Maybe they are experimenting.

parnell is a joke and its funny how he still gets chances.

they also play that trundler all rounder pretorious but yeah attack of morris,rabada and tahir is good 

 

[Rightarmfast]

Rabada is good, but I still dont rate him so high as to put in a world beater category. I would be inclined to say some of our bowlers are close to him. Shami is definitely way better.

[chewy]

Australia's bowling is excellent for Australia pitches, they have been so dominant on their home turf, even more so than India in India

 

India ODI team is good but not dominant. Even the current Aus crush their opponents in Australia

[The Dark Horse]

This is the best we've had. Got good potential to become the best of all.
