Trichromatic Posted January 22, 2021 Author Share Posted January 22, 2021 Pujara looked like struggling against Lyon, but he scored 101 with just 1 dismissal. SR was also decent. Pant and Gill dominated Lyon. Pant was only one to unhurt by Cummins. Link to comment

He is screwed when he tours India that's for sure. And I am damn sure bumrah is the better bowler in all formats. Don't get me wrong, Cummins is still an ATG or at least on the way there but bumrah at his best is better. Mosher, Rightarmfast, putrevus and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment
cowboysfan Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 we also dont have a lot of lefties in the team but in games it is markedly different how the lefties have such a easy time against Cummins compared to righties. Link to comment

There is a reason why Cummins is no 1. We dont need to force fit Bumrah as a better bowler. Indwin 1 Link to comment

That's a big negative while comparing potential ATG level bowlers. Cummins bowled decently during his last tour to India. Indwin 1 Link to comment

Actually Cummins has better average against lefties than right handed batsmen in his career. Somehow he failed against lefties completely in this series. Link to comment
dilliboy Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 People get carried away by small samples... Just because Pant played him great in this series doesn't mean Cummins struggles against all left handers. Bumrah is obviously a better white ball bowler but let's not kid ourselves to say he is better than Cummins in test matches. Cummins literally has everything one could want in a fast bowler - pace, swing, bounce, accuracy and incredible stamina raki05 and Lone Wolf 2 Link to comment

Well we shall see soon. Bumrah played with a string attack and still looked deadly. I believe bumrah is the better bowler overall and the next time Aussies tour India will decide who is better I reckon. No doubt bumrah is the superor shorter format bowler as well. Link to comment
Majestic Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 (edited) It is a legendary win for us, arguably the greatest ever. Steve Smith and Pat Cummins are arguably the best batsman and bowler of this generation and we won against them. Our team is no more about individual greatness but the whole team as a whole.

He has bounce, pace, accuracy and stamina. He was a bit under cooked due to lack of match practice this time and having to carry a string attack. Link to comment

Bumrah should be in that conversation too. Bumrah is every bit as good as Cummins. Link to comment

dilliboy Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Bumrah also had not played in the subcontinent yet... His stats will arguably go down once he does that regularly Link to comment

WC2011INDIA Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 All these stats Wats is bullshit. At the end of the day, you have to survive and get runs somehow. Either by playing slow cricket or taking on the opposition. Whether you are good against x, y, z is all nonsense that adds unnecessary pressure. Link to comment

He's pretty good, whether he can get better especially when Oz won't be at their best & India even better at home they'd be something to watch. He's for me in the Gillespie mould - Jason was better in India than McGrath, much better in fact even though stats may not show that. Link to comment
