If everyone agrees currently pitches are flattest all over the world and batting is easier compared to 20 years ago, it easily makes bumrah the best bowler as he makes batsman play tests in t20s
no way, pitches were way flatter in the 2000's than they are today. Bumrah doesnt have the longivety that mcgrath had across all formats yet to be compared to him
@@njokic2176But McGrath played most of his games in the 90s, when it was toughest to bat. Plus, easier batting conditions became a thing at the far end of McGrath's career.
@@njokic2176and moreover McGrath mostly bowled in batsman friendly conditions of Australia and Bumrah is bowling in bowling friendly conditions of subcontinent 😂
Pitces are flat only in white ball.
Red ball is at it's hardest for batting since 2017 lol.
80s were easy, 90s were 2nd hardest era for batting, 2000-2016 were then the easiest flat tracks of any era and then comes 2017-till now as the hardest era to bat.
Glenn was top 2 pacer in the 90s and then in 00-07 he was world's best pacer with even better numbers than his 90s which is why he is regarded as the best as 00-07 were flat wickets and he was bowling the same in them too.
And it's not like Glenn is the only challenge here.
Ambrose's numbers are same as Mcgrath, Steyn is also a goat level bowler as he played his whole life in flat track era and got the best of wicket taking abilities then there's Marshall too who's raw numbers are similar to Bumrah with more than double the wickets of him.
Bumrah will have to take 300+ wickets in tests with the same numbers to prove that he is on this level of GOATs
Nope bumrah had played more overseas tests than home ... And what makes bumrah even more lethal is his stats in the subcontinent which are better than his overseas stats ... @@RAHULGUPTA-ut7yy
I disagree with these guys. McGrath is NOT predictable. He got his wickets because his line and length may have been predictable but his deviation off the seam was subtle enough to get either get an edge or hit you on the pads in front of the wicket. He was like a metronome. He just didn't give you anything and would frustrate you as a batsman. You couldn't score freely form him because he rarely gave you a bad ball. Other bowlers may have moved the ball more but they were inaccurate and would miss the edge because the movement was too big and same for LBW as it would miss the stumps. McGrath's subtlety combined with accuracy made him the ultimate assassin. a
Good Observation..
McGrath was probably the most accurate of bowlers ever. And only he, himself could ever explain his thought process. But I think since batting Today is easier with flat batting pitches an such so bumrah maybe got an edge.
Mcgrath had precision of highest order and a cunning mind, but Jasprit does not entirely lack these either. On top of that he is playing in smaller grounds flatter pitches, he has awkward action, and different paced yorkers. Mcgrath was Mcgrath because nobody actually tried going at 7-8-9 runs per over and such things, while bumrah bowls long spells in test, he do the hard yard, and in t20s he could bowl his 4 overs in 3 spells if need be and be equally effective which is crazy.Mcgrath is a legend and only it took someone as skill possessed as Bumrah to not call his name.
You are absolutely right
Bumrah is a beast
Dominating all 3 formats is not at all easy
Kimber forgets Tendulkar started stepping out to prime McGrath first, not KP. Check the 2000 Champions trophy footage in Nairobi and the one day series after that in India. It was a deliberate and successful ploy by the master.
spot on, it was not just Nairobi, the domination was carried into the series where Aus toured India...
But have never seen Sachin dominate Mcgrath in tests esp those playes in Aus...
@@tarakvaakil8553 Sachin was the MOS in the 99 series which India toured, he was not there in 92 and 04
If only he had remembered to do the same in the 2003 WC final!! 😂
@@mrslask1 Actually it was the pressure of chasing 360. Check him how he played him the group stage, took his time and scored runs off him......
But chasing 360, he wanted to show 'intent' and well paid the price
i remember watching that match live.
Reasons - Flattest pitches,Small grounds, mindset of batsman,No saliva,Rules are like icc wants every batsman to become sachin or lara ask any of 90s bowler to bowl in todays pitches most of them will struggle nowadays.❤️
That's why the respect for Bumrah increase more and more...
Even in this Batting Era, the Flat Pitches, Smaller Grounds, Big Size Bats, 1 Bouncer Rule....... Still in all these circumstances Bumrah produces masterclass every single time.
@@madhavrathore5988 Where was his masterclass in the WTC 2021 Final 0/93 and 2023 WC Final ( 2/43 with 1 wicket lbw which wasnt out and the other wicket the batsmen slashed at a ball that wouldve been called a wide)
@@njokic2176 if you had watched full game ball by ball instead just scoreboard you may not dare to comment here.
@@unemployedcricketer yesss
@@unemployedcricketer i watched both games, he didnt look threatening at all. Likewise in the 2017 CT final too
The disrespect to McGrath is unreal lol
What disrespect both are legendary
you watch videos through thumbnail??
No one is untouchable
I wonder if the style of cricket today makes harder for bowlers today than today. Because of Glen was predictable, i think batters today would adjust to predictable. Dont get me wrong i think Glenn was a killer but Bumrah just gives a different thing.
Glenn was far from predictable. No two balls bounced the same height and he could move the ball either way. Only his general line was predictable everything else was very hard to pick up that’s why even the very very best had no clue against him
His length,line were predictable but then he could skid on,rise on you move away move in and that too almost at his will that's why he was great
Bumrah needs 4-5 years of this same consistency to be in the conversation of being compared to McGrath
It's not about greatest question is about who will be the toughest bowler for a batsman to face u can't compare players only on the basis of numbers.
He is consistent. The only problem is his fitness.
The reason they're comparing him to McGrath is itself the evidence of his impact and dominance in all three formats of the game. It doesn't matter how many years you played how many matches you played. He played fairly decent enough matches to be taking into consideration
He has been playing for India since 2017 and was away for about a year due to injury. The guy can bowl any delivery accurately and swing the ball both ways. His performance has been super consistent even including the dry spell he was going through leading up to the WTC final in 2021. Glenn McGrath was one of the best bowlers to play the game, as was Wasim Akram, but Bumrah is the most complete fast bowler in the history of the game till date. Sounds like high praise for a guy who has only been around for half a decade, but he has been showing up at the IPL for over a decade and displaying this quality. He has also dominated ODIs despite the 2 new balls (this imo would make McGrath more lethal today tbf) and he works out plans against batsmen very quickly.
No
I also remember McGrath breaking KP's ribs during the 2007 Ashes in Australia when KP charged about 5 balls in a row. On the 5th ball, McGrath dug it in short and had him out of the test injured - it was a masterclass in fast bowling. Lillee over Thommo every time.
That was in the ODI series.
1st match of Commonwealth Bank series 2007
You can't compare McGrath, the pigeon with anyone. He played for almost 15 years Bumrah needs to have longevity. The skills are there for JB. But it's the volume of matches alongside consistency that makes legendary players .
100% Bumrah’s skills are undeniable but his reliability as far as staying fit really lets India down a lot which let’s be honest is because of his strange action. That has to be taken into account.
Bumrah cant play that long because of his action ..that action is injury maker specially it hurts his spine
McGrath was a metronome. I don't think there is anyone in the history of cricket who was as accurate and consistent. He wasn't intimidating in terms of pace, but he was just so difficult to hit. Bumrah is an X factor player because he's so different. I think I would much prefer facing McGrath because I know what I would get, but it doesn't make him any less effective than Bumrah. Plus, Jarrod is right that it depends on what phases of the game you want the bowler for. Bumrah is arguably the greatest death bowler in the history of cricket, maybe only having competition with Akram. But McGrath is arguably the greatest new ball bowler. And I think Ambrose is right up there with McGrath. In test cricket, he actually has a slightly better average than McGrath. He was just part of a WI team that was going downhill.
Those who are talking longevity.. should know first..no of cricket matches played now and earlier..
Let's count the number of matches played rather than years. Should include one day ,t20, leagues ,and tests..
U will know the actual meaning of longevity is not years its number of matches
Top 3 fast bowlers across formats are definitely garner bumrah and mcgrath
Jarred has to pick McGrath , otherwise his Australian citizenship would be revoked 🤣
McGrath right now is the correct choice. Bumrah needs another 4-5 of this consistency to be compared to McGrath
@@njokic2176 may be to reach McGrath greatness, bumrah requires 4-5 years.. look at the flat pitches, small boundaries, big bats, powerplays.. also mcgrath played most of his matches in Australia which helps fast bowlers but Bumrah bowling on indian tracks that helps spinners.. now you can judge who is better bowler when its a match up.. both are great bowlers for sure..
Even I'd pick McGrath as an Indian, bumrah is undoubtedly the best bowler of the last 15 years.. But i feel he still needs a couple more years to be considered on the level of mcgrath/ambrose
@@pranav.m.warrier7407 mcgrath is great, no doubt.. we should not count on number of wickets or matches.. bradman has got only 7000 runs compared to sachin 16000 runs but bradman is the greatest of all and sachin being second.. if you keep mcgrath and bumrah in the same team, who will be your go-to bowler in all situation?.. that will answer the question..
@@gsathish87lol pitches same hai batsman ne aproch change Kiya hai attaking khelte hai bumrah 2016 21 T20 WC me flop 2017 champion trophy me bhi McGrath ka icc events me performance dekh
Ambrose is a better version of mcgrath, bhumrah is beast in all formats.
Not true
True..
BUMRAH VS AMBROSE is a closer debate...
@@sugoshiyer1540Ambrose 😂 type bowlers will be smashed in T20/
I love Bumrah's bowling and kinda take pride in the fact that he plays for India. Never imagined an Indian fast bowler to be so effective and so potent, across the format and in all the conditions (and phases of a game) and the one to be feared and respected by all around the cricketing world. But, he's got to play and keep doing what he's been doing for a few more years before he is considered at the same level as Pigeon. Used to be so awestruck watching McGrath bowl and used to keenly follow Ashes back in the days just because of him.
McGrath benefited from playing in the 90s and early 2000s when T20 cricket was non existent and batsmen were a lot more conservative compared to today. If McGrath was playing today, he would’ve been too predictable with his line and length and today’s batsmen would’ve absolute hammered him. Consistency in line and length is now passé. Bumrah can keep bowling in the channel all day like he does in test matches but he also has amazing variations that he puts to use in white ball cricket.
Hazlewood does really well in whiteball bowling and his thing is doing the same stuff Mcgrath did though.
@@TJSaw Batsmen can't block a decent ball today, there's no one in the class of Sachin, Lara or Kallis now.. McGrath would've had an absolute ball taking truckloads of easy wickets bowling to these wafters..
@@srinathprakash7042 nah buddy Hazelwood has similar qualities of line and length and if i have to see who is more threatening in all 3 formats bumrah hands down no one in history couldve been more threatening in all 3 formats as bumrah is now! With flat pitches and small grounds and everything agaainst bowlers bats too now a days more advanced! Considering all these changes to amount of cricket played ow and then bumrah is killer!
Are you kidding me You are comparing McGrath with Bumrah.. McGrath by all means is an all time Great, not only with new ball or old ball.. He's have stood test of time/ pitches/ conditions. If you are talking this era being batting friendly, yes agreed but also bear in mind the quality of batting also have detioreteted, the batsmen of this age doesn't put the price on wicket that they used to do in the nineties... Nothing against Boom but McGrath was just a different breed & Bumrah is yet to stand the test of time..
Also, Unfair Comparison against Pollock & Ambrose they brought different stuff to the table.. It's feels like some GenZ is putting up the comparisons based on stats & not have lived the Nineties Era..
PS : McGrath was the OG.. I mean even THE GOD couldn't touch him.
@@anandbakshi4391 absolutely right! Indians in the comments section, please stop this garbage of picking Bumrah over McGrath just bcoz he won a t20wc for us which happens almost every yr these days!!! Bias is unreal
Bumrah is the greatest all formats bowler ever.
With DRS McGrath will hv got less than 400 wickets. Many of his LBW and caught behind wickets will be not outs these days.
He goes viceversa
@@aviralsrivastava7324 more vice than versa
Not really sure why people assume that bcs McGrath wouldn't be effective today - he hammered a length during his career because that was what was worked, what got wickets, and he would almost certainly adjust his bowling to vary length in the high-strike rate environment of today. He had a good slower ball/yorker when he wanted to use them, and his ODI record is pretty stellar. Don't get why everyone has come to the conclusion that one of the most accurate bowlers in living memory, possible the most accurate, wouldn't be able to move his length around and adjust his bowling to suit the conditions, the man bowled at Sehwag and Jayasuriya and they weren't exactly slow-scoring. Can only judge him based off how he performed in the context of his era in my opinion.
Bumrah is like 5'10 5'11 not 6'2.
5-9.5/ 5-10.
He has broad shoulders that give the impression of a tall man.
@@iinderr1 that would make you look smaller
@@DitzySmoff how?
First comment of Jarrod vital. Where are we playing and what format? If we don't know it has to be Bumrah as the more versatile and devastating bowler in more situations.
Jarrod Kimber tells us McGrath has a better record than Ambrose as though this is definitively the case though it hardly seems clear cut. Ambrose has a better test average for starters, obviously McGrath has more wickets having played more games. McGrath's numbers are slightly better in ODI.
Been watching since the mid 80s and probably have a bias to the earlier half of that time, but Marshall, Ambrose and Wasim for me!
If people say virat cant be compared with sachin bcz of era than bumrah is the greatest pacer of all time bcz today (acc to nostalgia merchants) batting is easy then obviously bumrah> mcgrath,akram, anderson etc. You just have to accept one fact ❤
Technically, Bumrah is half a cm lesser than 5'11".
So do late melcolm Marshall।
Yes
Oof, such a good discussion. Can't go wrong with either pick but the insights were truly unique and thoughtful
Guys like McGrath would get many less wickets in today’s era because of DRS. The amount of dubious lbw calls that went his and Warne’s way in the 90’s and 00’s still astounds me.
@@harifederer lol warne & mcgrath were denied about 300 wickets each just bcoz a random tall batsman planted his front foot.. it's much much easier to take test wickets now than ever with clueless defensive techniques, video analysis & so many weak test sides.. the Amount of disrespect is just unreal in the comments!! And funnily & obviously most of 'em haven't seen mcgrath & warne play
@@srinathprakash7042 Stop exaggerating. Warne isn’t getting 1000 wickets in today’s era. I watched plenty of Warne and McGrath. Probably more than you because I am Australian and Warne in particular got plenty of dismissals go his way mainly because he was a great appealer. For someone who span the ball and bounced it as much as he did, he really did get favoured with lbw calls.
@@harifederer well, I have no words
@@srinathprakash7042 Sorry but it’s the truth. You can quote me all your post DRS spinner stats (most of that applies to off spinners anyway) and it still won’t change my position which is based on lived experience of watching Warne and McGrath bowl day in and day out all summer long in Australia for years. I could pick out at least 50 marginal lbw calls with no trouble.
And don’t conflate this with me thinking they are not great bowlers. They are obviously l. But their numbers are inflated.
how different are mcgrath and Hazlewood? in ability, in accuracy etc.
Can we not say with different dynamics of different eras.. Mcgrath would have a Hazlewood kind of career.
Hahahahaha.
Not remotely.
That’s like saying Chris Gayle and Brian Lara are both strike player West Indians and as good as each other.
Indian people are so biased. They cry in their lack of success
Hazlewood pitches it slightly back of an ideal length which means he's less likely to overpitch but has a lot of plays and misses rather than nicks. It's why Cummins and Starc generally get more wickets than him. Mcgrath was slightly missing or hitting off stump all the time depending on deviation off the seam.
Glenn McGrath - Opening wickets, Mr Dependable
Jasprit Bumrah - Unpredictable, Quick & Precise
Dale Steyn - Hold my beer 🍺🍺
As a Indian, I would pick McGrath...JB has still long way to go..
I apologize on behalf of all Indians picking Bumrah over McGrath. You gotta do it for at least 10 years to be in this conversation. Bumrah is unbelievable in white ball cricket, but he has played in the easiest era for Test match bowling with clueless batting techniques, video analysis and weaker batting sides all over the world. Don't disrespect Pigeon with such comparisons.
00:54, what on Earth is he talking about? Bumrah is 5 ft 10, McGrath is 6 ft 5.
Bumrah has an unorthodox bowling action much like Starc or Malinga. Except Starc bends a lot and malinga threw sideways.Malinga had been threatening for a brief period.
Mcgrath had orthodox action like every bowler of Aus and England. You would notice most Asian bowlers nowadays have similar bowling action and they get a good swing.
Boom is yet to reach that level from where he can distinguish with Pigeon,we indian knows the immense contribution of Pigeon in cricket after 5 years distinguish boom with great Aussie till than allow him to play.🙏
Bumrah has a questionable action so it has to be McGrath
Bumrah is GOD of bowling❤❤
McGrath was accurate but now it is different ball game.. if u r accurate someone like surya and Travis will go after you..
Bumrah is more multidimensional than mcgrath ,mcgrath was great with a few things,thus his great record,but bumrah can do pretty much everything a bowler can do,very consistently
Pollock was slower than McGrath. Ambrose was similar to McGrath, maybe quicket. Stuart Clark was for a few years. The key is how long you can do it, which only Ambrose does. Bumrah still has some way to go yet.
Both are amazing bowlers but Bumbra accordingly me is the greatest fast/ sem baller ever.
The thing about mcgrath is that he has that Hazlewood control He is basically hazlewood but better but the problem is pitches have changed
We have this discussion and no mention of Richard Hadlee? he was as deadly as McGrath. Yes, pitches were more helpful and batsmen were less adventerous. They played the reputation and not the bowler. Not any more..hence I would pin for Bumrah. It will be interesting to see Bumrah Brook play each other. We missed it last winter
Rules of ICC nowadays have made cricket only for batsman and marketing which even batting legends like Sachin and Lara commented is not good for game. So even if McGrath, Ambrose, Wasim or Donald would have bowled today would have mostly got hammered which they raarely went through in 90's.
People miss the fact that Bumrah can swing both ways, has variations, pace, has adapted to different formats, is a smart thinker of the game and above all does ALL this with extreme control.
Not that it is important but can be a handy striker with the bat.;)
Love these chats and this whole series. Keep them coming!
I am surprised they didn't mention Hadlee , pretty much same as Mcgrath in accuracy and pace.
McGrath has given several nightmares, but I will still rate Bumrah over. People might forget McGrath is supported by the one of the all time best fast bowling attack like Lee, Fleming, Kasprowicz. Bumrah can get you wicket anywhere at any stage of game.
Chaminda vaas was a very good bowler as well .
Bumrah economy was 3-4 runs per over in entire tournament in recently concluded 2024 t20 tournament. That speaks volumes about that man’s talent
I think it's safe to say that bumrah is the better bowler,as in he's faster almost as accurate,can swing more than McGrath and has a better slower ball and Yorker,also a better reverse swing bowler but McGrath has did it for more games,so currently McGrath but 3 years in the future it would definitely,he's probably the most complete bowler of all time,also works bloody hard
Bumrah is a threat to
Marshall and Ambrose( in terms of bowling avg).
Bumrah takes 4.7 wkts per test match.
But he wont last long and play 120 tests.
If Bumrah plays till 35 or 36 , he can take around 350 test wickts in 75 tests.
Bumrah can be judged only ,if after heis retirement and not now .
Jasprit Bumrah the G.O.A.T 🧡🇮🇳

Philander and Asif deserve to be mentioned here too
Depends what you want. For a ten-twelve year test career you want a McGrath playing in all conditions and rarely being injured. In modern cricket in all formats of the game in all conditions I’d go with Bumrah.
What a disrespect to someone like McGrath. 20 Bumrah would still not be able to put in the mind of batsman what they had when Mcgrath came to bowl.
Bumrah has rare genius ability combined with the mind of a Professor. Where as McGrath was the best Professor of his era. Both fantastic, both the best of their eras but I would take Bumrah who is the master of all 3 formats.
McGrath is like Roger Federer; he does very less but does it very gracefully and much better than the opponent can comprehend.
Bumrah is more like Rafael Nadal, he has a lot of talent and variety but due to certain things he does gets injured very easily.
Bumrah can hurt the batsmen. Batsmen are trying to save their wicket & their head.
With McGrath the risk of getting hurt was never there.
Bumrah is mentally tougher as well.
McGrath was tough & nasty as long as he was dominating & umpires were helping with helmet before wicket dismissals. But once he got hit (examples below**) he cried like a baby.
Also fast bowlers hunt in pairs like McGrath & Steve Bucknor. So Bucknor should get some credit too.
** Refer to Tendulkar smashing him in 2000 ICC Champions Trophy Nairobi & Abdul Razzak hitting 5 consecutive boundaries in SCG, 2000.
What a duckin brilliant conversation!! From the land of Jasprit... Big respect gentlemen 🙏🇮🇳
As an Indian it is flattering to hear people comparing bumrah to these all time greats
Bumrah would destroy everyone in the 2000s,lets be honest
Simple
Question
;- who would you pick if the condition are totally batting friendly
Bumrah is nightmare.., in today time when pitches are batting friendly., no reverse, better bats, smaller ground, no saliva, 2 new balls
Mc Grath >>>> bumrah, wasim, steyn
Bumrah still has a lot to prove. McGrath has a much greater body of work, so this is not a comparison.
I'd take Dale Steyn over both of them though.
Seriously man you are comparing Bumrah with McGrath, Its like comparing Virat Kohli with Sachin Tendulkar
As a fellow Indian : With all due respect k Bumrah... McGrath is the very best award
No way can this be a debate , McGrath is a far better , more consistent bowler
Having Shane Warne on the other side immensely helped McGrath.
Biggest Bumrah fan here. Jasprit is definitely harder to score off than McGrath in limited overs. And the best at the end overs.
But let's wait for him play a 100 tests to be compared with McGrath. I'm sure he'll be up there when he ends his career.
Curtly Ambrose the greatest bowler no debate!! He was in team that was in decline in terms of batting and overall results but he was the greatest!!!!
Don't compare. Even Steyn and Bumrah where their respective careers overlap..
Bumhra has better average and strike rate then all previous fast bowlers in batting dominating era .. that’s says it all
No one can beat McGrath on accuracy. Bumrah is awkward to play and hence difficult and has a lethal yorker..
Interesting chat, and Bumrah is without a doubt the finest quick India has ever produced. But comparing him to McGrath? Let's just settle down. Indian viewership is important to these channels but I'd rather see a serious conversation than one that's clearly farming for engagement
Just say u have poor ball knowledge
Dale styn is even better then magrath but we know how he was smashed by batsman in T20. Every current top 4 bowler is good untill T20 comes 😂. And we know nobody dares to hit bumrah in T20 😂
Aver Indian viewership and one is at liberty to gloss over the great bowling talent that India has produced. Lol. We absolutely love McGrath. But there is no reason for one to assume somebody better than him won't arrive on the scene. By 'better than' McGrath, I mean it could be anyone, from any country.
Anyway, we will wait till Bumrah hangs up his boots in this batsmen-dominated era and am sure we will have plenty to talk about him later.
Bumrah isn't tall, he's 5'10 at best. He's no where near 6foot
He is 1.78 m, quite close to 6 feet
@@shubhamkumar-gx5vx183 cm is 6ft
Bumrah is like a hybrid of Marshal and Ambrose. Awkward, potent, accurate - all at the same time.
Wow if someone is picking bumrah over McGrath... This is the best compliment bumrah can get
⚡🚨Beast with Beautifull Bowling Action in History of Cricket.... BRETT LEE❤,
Bumrah is Updated version of Malinga and One of Greatest in any Era💡✅... Becoming Lethal with Age just like Anderson⭐
🍻💯He would ve been even more Lethal in 90s Rule☘️
Bumrah is 5"9. He is shorter than shreyas who is 5"10.
he is surely tall according to Indian height
Stupid guy choosing Bhumra over McGrath. People have such a memory loss issue. Dementia running rampant in this world. There is no ICC final that McGrath played and lost. Just let that sink in. Australia was invincible and McGrath was one of the center/most important pieces of that puzzle. Bhumra is very good but not as good as McGrath.
Even with a smooth run up and delivery he was so lethal. Predictable my as&.
This is not a batsman friendly era. The Pakistan, WI, RSA are all garbage. SL decent. NZ is ok, India good and Australia good. Imo, Bumrah is bowling to some horrible batting lineups. McGrath had to bowl to atg lineups from India, WI with Lara, Chanderpaul etc, RSa with Kallis, Cullinan, Gibbs etc. Bumrah is great and will be an atg provided he plays enough tests, but McGrath was playing on flatter wkts vs tougher batting lineups.
Any day any format any pitch BUMRA is best. The bowling god. Others you can rank.
I agree McGrath is more predictable.
He is always good.
Bumrah too take wickets in nay format of Game!!.. Australian just wait for 22 Nov...He is coming there soon and will return India with lots of Wickets to his name and atleast 2 Fifers
Come'on jarrod when you compare eras and players then you should compare how good they are compared to other players of their era .Now you always say bumrah is the best cricketer on this planet but,you won't say same with McGrath because he has very close competitors in his time with the same skill not the case with jasprit.and also today new ball bowlers (best of them)will struggle against aggressive opening batters, McGrath also falls under the same category.
Come back when bumrah wins 3 icc wcs in a row

Genuinely genuinely interesting!
But isnt finding an old ball bowler more important than a new ball one
if bumrah goes on to win 2 more WCs he would be in the same league as mcgrath. People would always remember milestones.
The best bowler should be the match winner and world cup winner as there is no comparison between mc.grath and bumra, in all four world cup McGrath made easy to win world cup for Australia,
And he had a better team and bowler like Warne.
Bumrah is not a good new ball baller. You are kidding😂.
Like I said before, Glenn Mcgrath is a rich person's Jasprit Bumrah.. If that makes sense
Mcgrath played for THE AUSTRALIA
If bumrah coss 300 test wickets in his career then in my eyes bumrah will rank in the top 3 fast bowlers of all time
Bumrah the best old bowler? Wasim waqar plz
Asif was another mcgrath in the making too, but we havent seen the genius of wasim akram yet.
A thing to think about is that bumrah is not just good with the old ball,hes basically the greatest old ball bowler ever,and no one close to him,whereas other bowler are close to mcgrath as a new ball bolwer, personally id go bumrah, because he has a few more tools than mcgrath,but mcgrath has longevity on his side
Great chat
