Talk to me when Bishop comes near to this.
I'm gonna end saying this. One can argue that Bond could be better if he got a longer career, but saying that Bond achieved more in the short period he had is absurd. And going to match factor to support that claim is even more absurd.

Will go to attend an exam now. Wish me good luck.

I'm not saying that he achieved more in his career. That is obviously bishop. But I said that Bond achieved a higher level just quality wise imo, which due to the small sample sizes of both guys can't really be justified by stats tbh. The Bond vote is based upon that.
And good luck for the exam! What subject?

Bishop has a very reasonable sample size.

Math.

I don't watch odi's, nor especially value them, but that aside.

Bishop before the injury was the one looked at as Marshall's successor, not Ambrose.

He was rapid, could swing the ball and had legitimate GOAT potential.

He and Waqar were up there for fastest in the world for a short period before they both broke down.
