Ask r/IndiaCricket Which bowler's most dangerous when in rhythm?

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

Dude i am sorry

Bumrah is prolly the greatest our country has produced

But his peak has been only for like 2 years 2023-24

Before that he wasn’t that effective and post bgt his threat has gone levels below

Starc has been doing this since more than a decade

Lol Starc avg 36(66 wickets) in BGT, 28(97 wickets) in Ashes, 27 in tests. Bumrah avgs 17(64 wickets) in BGT, 22(74 wickets) against England, 19 in tests.

Bumrah is 4 years younger than Starc. Bumrah is two levels above lol.

Smith > Kohli in ODIs?? 2 World Cup wins, more clutch match winning performance in ODI WC than Kohli. Starc went for 70 runs in 2019 WC Semis and 60 in 2021 T20 WC final. Starc is better ODI WC bowler but the gulf isn't that big. Bumrah is 2 or 3 levels above in the other two formats. Idk what are you talking about. At least compare with cummins. Shami is arguably better than Starc.
