Nope. Need to win the world cup and also win another icc title for that.Better than Macgrath shane Warne Bret Lee gilipse
This pace attack will rock in foreign conditions. Spinners I'm not sure. Jadeja has a decent record abroad though. Wrist spinners can turn the ball on any surface and Kuldeep is yet to be tested on foreign soil after the change in his bowling.One thing I forgot when I was comparing them to other ATG bowling lineups is that this is still their home conditions. Will this trio do good in the 2025 CT and 2027 WC?
The ATG bowling lineups away from home and still dominated.
In that case Sreesanth is one the greatest bowlers from Asia having won the 2011 world cup and 2007 T20 WC.Nope. Need to win the world cup and also win another icc title for that.
They need to maintain his sub 25 average and help india win the world cup in the case of bumrah and shami for example.In that case Sreesanth is one the greatest bowlers from Asia having won the 2011 world cup and 2007 T20 WC.
There are only two gun bowlers in that Aussie team. Mc Grath and Warne. The others like lee, Gillespie were good bowlers but aren't considered greats. Also by that logic Gautam Gambhir is the greatest batsman from Asia as he has a great record in general, won both world cups, was top scorer in finals too. There is no memory of that Aussie attack destroying teams in world cups for 50,100, 150 or less than 200 consistently. That too in conditions conducive to batting where 300 is a par score in many instances.Again straw man logic. I knew someone would come up with this stupid fallacy. They need to maintain his sub 25 average and help india win the world cup in the case of bumrah and shami for example.
Sreesanth averaged 35 pr something in odi. Don't be an idiot.
Mcgratj averaged 23
Lee 23 in odi too
Gambir averages 39. How can he be called greatest odi batsman. Settle down.There are only two gun bowlers in that Aussie team. Mc Grath and Warne.

Lol at you comparing ODI averages back then to current age. 40ish avg was considered good not too long ago. Your benchmarks keep adding up based on your convenience and you are biased. Lee without McGrath and Warne was a nobody. Gillespie too. Only two super stars in that team. Gambhir is a bonafide legend according to you. I disagree to a certain extent but will go with the flow. Also, by the same logic Dhoni is the greatest batsman, captain from Asia ever. Won both world cups, CT and averages close to 50. Kohli is also there as he won a world cup and CT and averages 50.Gambir averages 39. How can he be called greatest odi batsman. Settle down.
Bumrah and shami have to prove their worth in semis and finals of a world cup. If they win then sure put them there as one of the best ever. Until then it's a no. They are definitely up there amongst say top 5 or so but not the best yet.
Lol at Lee and Gillespie just good bowler.s yoy might want to check out lee's average in odi. One of the finest odi bowlers that existed.
Pointless arguing with you if you think they can be labelled the best without an icc title.
They shot out prime pakistan team in 99 with relative ease in the final. They blasted india for sub 130 in the group game in 2003. Remember that?
Lol that's like saying waqar is a nobody without wasim or Walsh is useless without Ambrose.Lol at you comparing ODI averages back then to current age. 40ish avg was considered good not too long ago.

Drs not being a thing benefited no one more than Aussies.Can't compare current Indian pace Trio with Aussie legends.
That was a different time full of legends in all teams. Bats were less thick and DRS was not a thing. And teams focused less on swing and fitness and fielding too.
Bumrah, Siraj, Shami is no.1 in current generation but Shami is old and will retire soon. Bumrah siraj are too injury prone.
Take them outside India and see what happens.People have to realise that this pace attack is doing magic on conditions more suited to spin then pace.
That shows how good this attack is.
Outside India, they'll still win. Those pitches will offer swing and bounce, these pitches do not, these are flat belters and only suited for spin.Take them outside India and see what happens.
Lol they bowl better outside india especially in australia and England. Even In SA.Take them outside India and see what happens.
Again new benchmarks. First it was combo. Then the addition of world cups. Then the run before his retirement. This is a flawed argument where you keep clutching at straws. Dhoni is the best ODI batsman based on records, clutch performances, averages and his captaincy is legendary based on your own comments so far. As I said it's your bias that is clouding your judgement.Lol that's like saying waqar is a nobody without wasim or Walsh is useless without Ambrose.
Thats why it's called bowling in pairs or bowling well as a unit.
Lee was a phenomenal odi bowler. Just take a look at his stats and see for yourself.
Dhoni is an odi legend but not the greatest batsman. He had many flaws and his run just prior to retirement hurt his credentials.
Gambir was a clutch player but even if you believe 39 was a good average for the time, he was never really a number 1 ranked batsman at any time so that point is moot.
It's a combination of things. Ability to play in all conditions, strike rate, average, performance vs top sides, performance in KOs, calibre or bowlers faced, ranking of the player etc.
Kohli is one of the greats yes but he is not at the level of Ponting or Sachin yet. If he wins this wc then sure. Same with the bowlers. Only winners are celebrated provided they meet other criteria listed above as well. In the case ofna bowler obviously you have different metrics that need to be satisfied but the concept is the same.
Only one clinging on to straws and using random Strawman logic in a futile attempt to dispel the reality is you here. Not me.Again new benchmarks. First it was the combo, then the world titles then the averages and now "run" before retirement. Your bias is clouding your judgement. Before you choke yourself with further clutching of straws, Dhoni is a bonafide legend whichever way you look at it. Lee was a dummy after McGrath and Warne. Gillespie just disappeared. Kohli. Already won the world cup and CT. He's already a legend. This pace trio in India can each take a 5 wicket haul on their day. They are doing this on batsman friendly wickets. They will be unplayable in England and Aus or SA. This is just the beginning and long may continue their reign.
They have 2 ATGs great bowlers bumrah and shami. They don’t have a weak link. There is not one bowler in the Indian team the opposition can possibly target they are that good. I will be shocked if any team will make over 200 against them.I can only speak for myself - I have been following Indian cricket for forty plus years and there has been no Indian attack better than this one.
It’s not just talent, it’s so many bowlers peaking at the same time (This last part is critical).
You think this attack can stop 2003 aus batting? It will be close for sure but indian batting won't be able to handle mcgrath and Warne either.They have 2 ATGs great bowlers bumrah and shami.

This team is the greatest of all time and will win this World Cup without breaking a sweat. This has been and will be the most one sided World Cup ever. Absolute no competition.
Warne didn't play in 2003. failed drug test. Brad Hogg was their main spinner. Gillespie dropped out due to Tendon injury. Actually that attack was more about brett lee more than Mcgrath. Brett Lee was terrorizing at high pace.You think this attack can stop 2003 aus batting? It will be close for sure but indian batting won't be able to handle mcgrath and Warne either.

He was good in those helpful conditions with relentless accuracy. But Gillespie was always their main bowler. I remember correctly the talk was all about BRett Lee as he was at top of his game in that world cup. Infact teams were hesitant to bat first because of Brett Lee.Bichel was good also. Took a 7-fer.
Ist a great attack but run machine siraj weakened it a lot. Bumrah and shami are class.Warner and Marsh got out to nothing deliveries and Steven Smith was wrongfully given out. Let’s not compare this attack to the legendary Pakistan or Australian attacks again. Siraj can not even be trusted to open the bowling in low scoring matches.
