But Shami's bowling performances in World Cups are extraordinary.

Shami at the world cup is just insane
18 matches. 55 wickets @ 13.52 and SR of 15.81
4 5-Fers and 4 4-Fers. A 4-Fer almost every 2nd match

Top 2 for sure, Almost as good as Starc (statistically slightly better, will keep Starc ahead only for winning the Cup twice. Had India won in 23, would keep Shami as equals)

Bumrah, he is just so tough to hit in death overs and is very good with new bowl too.
Shami is probably better with new bowl but much worse in death overs.

Bumrah might be the hardest bowler to hit while bowling full tosses.

Haha true. Bumrah just gets into batters' heads sometimes.
Not only full tosses, he is probably hardest to hit. Skill of moving balls both ways with deadly yorker makes it hard, but I think his late release makes it harder.
To put it in context, WC teams are normally full strength and we see 300-350 kind of scores and yet see his ER.

I was talking about all time. Garner along with quite a few others definitely produced comparable amount of unplayable deliveries.
But don't think any bowler dominated batters while bowling full tosses.
In the 2024 IPL, he averaged somewhere close to 15 while maintaining an economy rate close to 5.7.

Bumrah the better bowler. Shami the better career

This is a bit unfair to the bowlers that played in 2015 which saw far higher scores than 2019 in particular.

Top 6 ODI pace bowlers of the last 10 years:
Starc
Boult
Bumrah
Henry
Shami
Hazelwood
Rabada and Woakes are a bit behind. If Archer had been fit he could've been up in the top group.
Edit - forgot about the Fizz. He's better than Rabada and Woakes

Lol. Shami's WC record blows Henry way out of water.

Wow that's a huuuuge difference. Surely WC performance can make up for that.

Definitely there are Tests!! Now, on only ODIs nowadays, I can't rate JAMODIs nearly high enough for Henry to be considered even a challenge to Shami and his WC record.
