Cummins is the more complete bowler. Think Anderson's mum would struggle to argue with that. Anderson having a 20+ year career with a very good record is not to be sniffed at though.

Honestly I don't really care about home/away difference at all but a lot of people appear to so I thought it would add some context to the posts most people make about Cummins being more 'all round' or 'complete' or whatever.

Probably go:

Cummins >> Anderson > Rabada , out of currently active bowlers.

Not how good they are right now, mind, just their overall greatness as bowlers. There's a big "probably" to it though, due to how "mid stream" Cummins' and Rabada's careers are.

WPM needs to be in there, especially as Anderson is their main bowler.
