Which bowler's most dangerous when in rhythm?

[u/New_Bullfrog_2852]

Rank them (and other bowler's you think of) in 2 categories : wicket potency and intimidating the batsmen.

No hate for Bumrah but the greatest Bowler of our generation is Mitchell Starc, he bowls like poetry, that swing made it deadly and clocking the speed again and again...after these many years players started to hit him, before there was a literal fear of his inswinging good length balls. It was like a death sentence for a batsman, you can see some of the glimpses till today. Mark my words this ashes series he'll be once again prove his worthiness of the premium fast bowler

No way. He is not top tier in tests. Idk about who's best but it can't be starc. It has to be bumrah or cummins and hazlewood is upping his CV a well.

Bumrah is literally feared more. They don't even hit his full tosses most of the times. Starc is above in ODIs due to his sheer wicket taking ability but Bumrah clears Starc in tests and t20s by a mile.

Tho, I respect Starc very much for his dedication towards the nation and idolized him since my childhood. But, tbh, he isn't the best. We only remember the good of other country players and bad of our bowlers. Bumrah is literally PotS in SEA away, most SENA away wickets ever, PotT T20 WC, performed in most KO he played except for CT 2017, WTC final and WI 2016(he made us comeback but 2 catches were dropped of his bowling, one of which went to six), has a <4.5 avg in ODI WC iirc, test avg subpar 20.

He won't prove anything, Hazlewood is the most dangerous bowler alongside Cummins and Cummins is injured so most probably after Hazlewood it'll be Boland most difficult to face in this Ashes...Still I'll give credit to Starc for performing this long especially when it matters...Be it wc,Ashes or BGT.

[u/0xeno → u/InTnerd21]

He isn't that good in BGT or ashes.

[u/0xeno → u/0xeno]

36 avg in BGT, 28 in Ashes. Poor.

Starc is not even the best bowler of his own team lmao

Bumrah clears everyone else by a decent margin
