How much did slip cordons affect Marshall's and Wasim's records?

[sayon basak]

It does a bit. ODIs can have a pretty set formula that Wasim was naturally good at.

You get tested mentally in different ways in a longer format.

I personally do not think mental toughness should not be a metric to judge a bowler. Marshall was simply better. Fullstop.

Mental toughness has different dimensions. Being able to reserve your best performance for the big occasions, being able to overcome tough conditions, being able to bounce back, not being indisciplined or subject to losses in form due to offfield issues. I think it affects bowling standing.

I gave examples from watching his test career.

Its easier to play in better teams, with better support in more helpful wickets.
Above all, Akram's team lacked discipline and harmony too.

The original sin is the phrasing of the op.

Marshall isn't the outlier, all of the top guys had good support, including the referenced McGrath.
At one point Pigeon had a cordon of Taylor, Waugh and Warne, and never had anything below AT quality. And neither did the rest of them.

Wow that's a great cordon.
