Coming back to a comparison of India, whom you consider not worth comparing with England, and the English attack. Here is how they fare against the best in the world.
Since 1st jan. 2001. The following is the result of matches played by India and England against the undisputed world champs.
TEAM........PLAYED.......WON........LOST........DRAWN
India.................12..............4...............5..............3
England.............10.............2...............8..............NIL
While Indias win/loss ratio is 45/55, Englands is 20/80 !!! Number two side indeed !!
Does that say something about the Indian bowling. I guess not to someone who has made up his mind. India won due to their superior batting , is it ? Here are the bowling averages of the two teams against Aussies
TEAM........Bowling(Runs/wicket)
India.................39.1
England............47.8
Thus England concede 87 runs per 10 wickets more to the Aussies than India. When you add that to the batting averages, India 33.1 and England 27.8, you can see the problem. India has a net difference with Aussies of 6 runs per wicket and England have a whopping difference of 20 runs per wicket or 200 runs per ten wicket. Number two side indeed !!
Not only do the English bowlers conced more runs per wicket they are also hit harder and more often(surprising for a pace based attack) at 4.17 runs per over that Aussies score against the English attack as against 3.63 against India. Thus in a 100 overs, England would be hit for 54 more runs. Not a small difference , is it.
Come of it my friend. There is no way you are going to prove by stats or otherwise the superiority of this English side's bowling attack.
By the way, I have taken the stats for the last four years which includes the peaks of Harmison. Take his recent form and...Gawd help England
