    Believe me he won't lose a moment of sleep over it. He has won the WTC and the ODI WC and retained the Ashes in England all in the same year. He won't be bothered by records. He is a genius as a captain and he will always be remembered as one of the greats of our game long after he is retired, even if he is not in the record books of most wickets etc.

      *Played a minor role in the 2015 WC winning team
      *Played a minor role in 2021 t20 WC winning team
      *Only player who captained Australia to win 1. World Test Championship 2. Retain Ashes 3. Win ICC ODI World Cup 4. Win bowler of the year 5. Become most expensive buy in IPL history... all in one year : 2023 ..with the second highest win rate in terms of captaincy in Australian Cricket history

    The thing is, most Pacers do not play that long. And ones that get injured that early, even less so. Pat came back and came back stronger than ever. He's led Australia to win the Test Mace and the WC. And he will have taken more than 400 Test wickets by the end of his career at an average close to 22. He's gonna be a legend regardless of whether he took 700+ test wickets or not.

      Bradman is the best sportsperson in history full stop. No other sportsperson is so far and above the next best in their field as Bradman is to the next best Batter. So to suggest that Cummins is somehow better than Bradman is ridiculous. Cummins could go down as Australia's greatest ever Pace bowler sure, he may even go down as Australia's greatest ever Captain depending on how he and the team performs for the rest of his captaincy (although I'd argue Ponting and Waugh are still better atm).

    I enjoyed this interesting and informative video. But I do want to say that I don't think total number of wickets is the best metric to determine who is the greatest bowler. There are just so many reasons why a bowler might have less wickets than he otherwise might have had, and using this metric is a bit like comparing apples with oranges, especially if the players being compared are from different eras, or even different countries. Does anyone actually think that Muralitharan was a better bowler than Warne? Although imperfect, I think the traditional bowling average (especially over a long career) is still the best method to compare bowlers (within similar eras).

    Like all the other commenters, why focus on the future legacy of a player that is still playing in the present?
    That being said, I feel the general public's perception of a "legendary player" depends on whether they have outlier stats (total test wickets like McGrath) or obviously exceptional at one skill (accuracy with McGrath, speed with Thomson and lillee).
    Cummins probably won't get up to that 500+ wickets mark that he deserves, but interestingly his skillset is so expansive, I do wonder whether that gives the impression that he's an average allround bowler rather than a perfect player. Imagine a universe if the tennis fans perception was skewed so that people would say "Federer is good at everything, surely that is average. But give me Andy roddick. Peak serving".
    An accurate bowler with subtle variation who prefers to bowl first change, but isn't precious enough to decline bowling short as a third spell, or bowling off spin/off cutters against India in India in a world cup final. Cummins is OP

    No, speculation is very good but only watching stats, then would make Kallis the greatest ever player in the history of cricket. But he is not recognised in that way, like the whole aura and his impact.
    McGrath, Ponting, Warne literally, when I say their names it feels I am naming legends. They have had that kind of impact, it comes from the years of creating that impact.
    Pat definitely is currently the best fast bowler on the planet, but let's suppose he adds 1 more WC as captain and 2-3 WTC and T20 WCs then this decade of 20s would be definitely of the kind of resemblance to that great aussie era of 1999-2007.
    Australia have started that history repeat very well with 1 T20 WC 1 ODI WC and 1 WTC, we got 4 T20 WC and 1 ODI WC and 3 WTC left till 2030
    As a fast bowler I definitely think he would lead Aussie pace attack till 35 or 37, but his body and fitness during this long term comes into play. If he manages to win any of the above mentioned accolades, even with 370-400 test wickets.
    He could be rated as a GOAT.

    No way would he have lasted that long. I was thinking about this the other day (about starc who has been injury prone in the past too) but both of them would not have lasted as long if they didn't break down as often as they both have done in the past. If anything the injuries have lengthened the careers further as if they hypothetically did not get injured with alot of minor things, with the strain of pace bowling they both would have had a more serious injury that would have potentially forced them to retire early.

    I don't think stats tell the story we should be looking for. Take Imran Khan for example his total wicket tally is 362 from 88 test matches. His impact is impossible to describe in words. On the other hand, while just as great Jaques Kallis had better overall stats. But I would in a heartbeat would rate Imran over Jaques. Similarly, if we compare Pat with Jimmy anderson or Stuart Broad, the stats or the projected stats won't tell the story of how much impact this man has had on international cricket. Other than that more important than all his wicket tally is when he gets those wickets. You could have mitchell starc take a 5-fer, but what really would have mattered were the 2 wickets cummins took when a team was on 200-1 on the second day of the test match.

    This 728 calculation is not realistic. As if he had played through his early career he’d be unlikely to play to his mid 30’s.
    Mind you Anderson & Broad have gone well past this age, so who knows. 🤷‍♂️
    Lillie missed a lot of time due to injury and the World Series Cricket dispute. Not to mention they played less tests.
    For the 13 years he was active playing 11 tests per year at an average of 5.07 (which is the key here when put next to this 4.44 is looking a bit measly) wickets per game that would have him at 669 wickets.
    Based on a higher wickets per test ratio the calculation towards the end of this video means Cummins must have played more tests again in this scenario.
    Don’t get me wrong Cummins is great(so is Hazelwood) and yes his impact is increased by being captain.
    But a quick scan of the teams Lillie played in and he (apart from the odd Cheppel once in a while) was nearly always the main man.

    I think Cummins is good but he is not even close to being the best bowler in the world.

    Not keen on the clickbait technique where you have to watch 9 minutes to see the opening proposition even disclosed but a good vid otherwise. No thumbs up or down from me

    Didn’t mention that he wanted to change the date for Australia Day, got involved with the United Nations climate change sustainability program and the yes vote campaign. He’s very Un-Australian and woke. 🇦🇺

      You didn't mention that he also said "Australia is the greatest country on earth" and that in his opinion "There HAS to be an Australia day.
      The fact that you used the term woke shows you aren't aussie, as no self respecting aussies use it. It's an unaustralian term that is laughed at.

    He might not have been as good if he had done. He was brilliant on debut but not yet as consistent as he would become. There are a number of players one can say this about regarding injuries.
