[PlayerComparisons]

Two strike bowlers

I'm going to wait until Jasprit Bumrah has finished his career before deciding. @SillyCowCorner1

I think its pretty straightforward on this poll to figure out the guys that always vote against the Indian player / only vote for the Australian. No real case for Miller, and no you don't have to wait for Bumrah's career to be finished to assess that,

Miller has more 10’fers tho

Bumrah obviously better, but 40 tests is way to short for the ATG comps.

Longevity. I don't expect it to still be true when Bumrah retires.

I mean, Miller himself didn't really had a much long enough career due to WWII....

I think miller cops it because of his era. I don't know why, but they took less wickets per game back then.

10 years to 6 and 55 matches to 36 is pretty significant.

but does that matter when someone has pretty much taken the same amount of wickets at a better average in far fewer tests

because it was a sh@ttier era.

also Millers WPM much worse than other “great” bowlers from his era

Slower scoring era so less wickets and more draws

Exactly why Trueman should be rated higher by this forum than it does.

Too soon to rate Bumrah.

Too soon to rate Bumrah.
