Jasprit Bumrah vs Malcolm Marshall

[Sliferxxxx]

Still "less" support don't you think?

Outside Asia yes his support isn't the same. Inside Asia, well I don't think i need to say anymore...cough cough Ashwin and Jadeja. But let's not get it twisted, I'm Bumrahs greatest advocate, early on when others were talking up Cummins etc I was always team Jasprit. He may very well be the best pacer ever. Time will tell....

Marshall played alongside Roberts, Holding, Garner, Walsh & Ambrose.

Considering Bumrah has played outside India for the majority of his matches, he has nowhere the support that Maco had.

 

[HouHsiaoHsien]

Walsh and Holding were great bowlers in Asia.

One consequence of that should be a lower wpm and less 10 fors for maco but he doesn't quite have that

Holding played one series with Maco in Asia. Maco played mostly in Asia sans Holding and Garner.

 

[HouHsiaoHsien]

Still Walsh is one of the best touring bowlers to Asia ever

 

[HouHsiaoHsien]

Not saying Bumrah is better than Marshall(obv not), if Bumrah has 300 odd wickets at a sub 20 average then he can be compared

Yeah but one Walsh is not remotely close to Ash/Jadeja on Asian wickets. Again though, outside Asia where Bumrah has played more, he doesn't have the level of quality support Marshall had.

He's already worthy of comparison imo ironically enough for me. Why? Because 200 wickets is my bear minimum and he's bossed pretty much every other batting lineup in world cricket. India seriously needs to think about his longevity though and have him sit out meaningless limited overs matches.

Bumrah's only played 12 tests in Asia anyway

Agreed

 

[DrWolverine]

Malcolm Marshall and Jasprit Bumrah have played the same amount of away Tests outside Asia and records of bowlers who played alongside them.

Similar Wpm , Bumrah better average and sr. Maco better support.

 

[DrWolverine]

Even I was surprised by how close the numbers are

Man Indian bowlers suck at taking 10’fers outside Asia.

 

[Sliferxxxx]

I'm not, their eras are similar: decent batting with favorable bowling conditions and both Bumrah and Maco donot care about pitch conditions.

 

[Johan]

True.

Not saying he is better bowler but Bumrah has a equally good if not better record with less support and in an era where no other fast bowlers stood out

honestly a lot these days average ATG numbers

300 and a decade long career should be a bare minimum to be compared with ATGs.

If he ends up with less I will put him around Garner level.

Where do you rate Garner?

 

[Prince EWS]

Where do you rate Garner?

Around Tendulkar level.
