Rabada (Pre injury) 

Daylight 

 

Cummins

Bumrah 

Shaheen 

Starc

Haze

Boult 

 

 

I have focused mainly on Test & ODIs.  T20 cricket isn't for quality bowlers.

Bumrah pre injury was better than both above him. Even now he is.

The hottest of hot takes.

Yea we all saw what happened in India vs piss poor batsmen. Record v Sri Lankas is bad too. 

 

I dont mean he isn't good. He is but he is. Boun e trck bully. 

 

Bumrah of injury free is at the top with relative ease. Shami shits on scummins in Asia too. 

[speedracer]

Lol scummins can't even get rohit fat lard ass, kela and shitheads like coolie and a wander like ghuJra out haha.

Drink some ice cold water and take a break from internet.

I think scummins is the bitch that needs ice. Ran away from India tour. He is overrated. 

 

Scummins what has he done in India and lol lamka? Hahaha

 

[speedracer]

There us no way I would rate a one dimensional bounce track bully scummo over bumrah. 

 

They are great bowlers but Cummins is number 2 or 3. 

 

Make no mistake. Mcg is the best ever. No one comes close apart from maybe Marshall. 

[speedracer]

Eveb luccha boy steyn has a padded record. He was poor in multiple in countries

England. Australia handled him quite well in pak he has an average record too.

Sorry, Cummins takes the top spot for me. The rest looks good.

 

I would have said the same if he bowled better in India. 

[Sooda]

What do you mean by "bowling performances" ...? Because Broads performances can be immense, when he gets going he destroys teams arguably like no one else.

Yes, but Cummins has a bigger and better body of work and now has leadership role as well. Staying injury free is a credit to him. Cummins could perform 10x worse in India or the subcontinent and he'd still stay ahead of Bumrah for me.

I look at ability. Ability wise chuckrah in form is better. Consistency due to being injury free you can give it to scummins. But he has been poor in India and lungaaa. So a no for me. 

 

Tullah rabada is another one struggled in india/lungaa and even in u.a.e to an extent. Bounce track bully to an extent. Great bowler but yes he has holes.

Nope not even close...A teen  Rabada was genuinely challenging every past pacer. 

Age fudger Waqar's record of youngest to  200 wickets should ideally be given to Rabada who is second on the list. 

 

Probably the last teenage sensation of our times.

When did he help SA win in India or Pakistan?

Ywa no. He won in Oz. Similar conditions to SA. 

 

Did ok in England. Nz conditions and ball is more similar to SA. Poor and quite pathetic in India and Asia overall. 

 

I dont think so. I love rabada but in terms of ability at peak form bumrah shits on him for me. 

 

Bumrah is a choker though in finals.

[Gollum]

Rabada lol, got outbowled by Hassan Ali and no name trundlers in Pak. Even in India he has been pathetic.

Rabada Pre & Post injury is in different league. 

That's why teen sensations have become rare.  His body wasn't able to sustain this. 

He is was in a decent shout to break age fudging Waqar's record for youngest to 200 wickets if not for the back injury   Eventually did at 25 still 3rd youngest & youngest non Asian to do that. 

 

He came too young... And was genuinely fast at 18-19 years as well.  A 90mph bowler. 

Cummins also probably would have gone on to break Waqar's record if not for injury.

Home performance of Rabada is good. So if we strictly talk about away performances (excluding minnows like Afghanistan, zimbabwe, ireland)

 

I present to you 

 

Last 3 years away performance (minus minnows)

 

[vvvslaxman]

All said and done, in Tests Anderson is the new benchmark.
