At the end of his career, what do you reckon—will he reach 500 Test wickets? He is only 29 years old now and has already taken 300+ Test wickets

I don't think he gets enough credit. The guy is an absolute killer and has been ever since he made his debut. He has none of the PR that Bumrah and Cummins have behind them, and probably plays half the number of test matches as those guys, but his brilliance is incredible across the board and across formats.
The action is absolutely beautiful. The amount of crazy good jaffa deliveries are on-par with Cummins and Bumrah, and the consistency is also unreal. He is just a cold operator.
The only blemish is probably his record in India, but then again, a number of great fast-bowlers have struggled there and there is no reason why he can't improve that in future tours.\
You could argue that Cummins and Bumrah are better than him, but he is very much in the same category as them.

Yup, bumrah, cummins rabada they are the 1-2-3 of this generation, Jamieson probably vould have joined them without the injury.

He is bowling better than he was before.
You can hardly bowl better than what he is doing.

Steyn had more series defining performances away from home than Rabada and that’s why I rate Steyn higher despite both having their away averages worse than home averages. It only validates the pitches they played in.
What are the series defining performances Rabada has away from home? A series in BD is fine and he will have one in Windies too. But I am looking for the performances in India, Australia, England, New Zealand, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.

Nz the last time he played he did good iirc. Might have been 1 0 saffers winning in the end.

He is still good but those lengths are still too short to be destructive

True. But Waqar had a back injury and never fully recovered, Otherwise he would have rewritten the record books.
