Jasprit Bumrah vs Malcolm Marshall

[Johan]

Include WSC if you want to. I'm okay either way.

None.

Now post the averages.

Let's go with no WSC.

Sachin: 14,286 runs @ 50.65 [considering 2000s Zim/Ban minnows]

Viv: 8,540 runs @ 50.24 [never played 1980s Sri Lanka]

Cummins is handsome and bowls like he has a vendetta against full length swing bowling.
He hits the deck so hard its like he is creating a hole on the pitch.

The Indian batsmen fear getting hit each time they face Cummins.
Pat Cummins is an excitement machine who hits the deck hard and bowls above 140 clicks.

Yeah, but Sachin did it for far longer, beginning a teen and finishing in almost 40. Remove his first 3 and last 3 years and I am pretty sure his numbers will take a beautiful hike

I've Sachin higher than Viv by a lil bit, not for averages tho

Just putting some perspective really, as the runs are almost double.

 

[Johan]

Yeah longetivity and consistency accross decades is why I think Sachin's case is stronger

 

[sayon basak]

Cummins is handsome.

Yeah, there you go. Just admit that Cummins is your crush.

Don't be ashamed. Be proud.

Love is love.

Bumrah is a mediocre swing bowler. No Australian batsmen fears getting hit by him, or any other Indian bowler in history for that matter.
Australia's philosophy and brand of cricket will always be known as the most exciting and ***y in the world.

Steady there bhai.

lol@a certain segment of our respective countrymen. Total dregs.

 

[kyear2]

Telling this directionally, Kapil was capable of handling even longer workload than Marshall. But kyear2 considers him bits and pieces.

Yes he was capable of marathon spells, but he's not that elite level quality. Don't think anyone would argue that he is, all I meant.

 

[kyear2]

No one said Bumrah is a workhorse iirc.


That's a different discussion on team selection.

Yes it is, one that I've been routinely shouted down over in the past

 

[kyear2]

3 international formats and a full 2.5 months of IPL. Players from previous eras were not playing as much cricket. They even used to have a rest day in middle of a test match.

Yes there are 3 formats.

Doesn't touch how much overs those guys used to bowl in first class cricket.

They did have rest days though, used to hate those.
