How does bumrah 2024 get compered to other peak years of atg bowlers

[govinda indian fan]

Bumrah picked 71 wickets @ 14.92 in 2024 how does this compare with peak years of other atgs like imran 1982

 

[DrWolverine]

Bumrah in 2024 was as good if not better than any other fast bowler in the last 100 years of test cricket

Right up there with the top peaks IMO. Probably top 10 if not top 5

I think it was posted in the bumrah thread. CBF looking it up though

 

[Fuller Pilch]

In 13 tests he took 71 wickets, so if the 2 NZ tests he played are taken out it is 68 wickets in 11 (more than 6 per test). Brilliant

 

[sledger]

Yeah he's not bad I guess

Imran averaged 19 in the 80s (at 4.75 WPM, despite the number of draws he played in).

Why would you take out the two NZ tests tho.
