Rank them as test bowlers

Gillespie
Johnson
Starc

Red Ball Starc is pretty much just an above average bowler.

 

[Thala_0710]

Gillespie is the best, not sure about Johnson vs Starc

Depends on the colour of the ball

Even if you take out the pink ball numbers, Johnson isn't that far ahead of Starc imo. Adding them in idk who should be rated higher

given era taxes Red Ball Johnson is distinctly ahead.

 

[Thala_0710]

given era taxes Red Ball Johnson is distinctly ahead.

He is ahead because of the era taxes only though.
I'm going for Johnson > Starc too but I don't think there's a big gap tbh

there's not a big gap but one's clearly better than the other

Underachievers, all, though at least Starc reached mega heights in World Cup cricket.

I wouldn't say so

 

[reyrey]

Starc hasn't really had the peaks like Gillespie and Johnson where they were world class. That puts him below the other 2 for me. Gillespie 1st.

 

[Johan]

I wouldn't say so

You are incorrect.

 

[PlayerComparisons]

Gillespie was a beast and arguably better than Hazlewood

Glad to see Gillepsie getting the plaudits he deserves here.

Johnson/Starc an interesting one. Johnson had such huge highes and lows.....on the one hand I dont reckon Starc has ever been a complete liability like Johnson was at his worst, but he's also never come close to being an unplayable god like Johnson's best (not sure many if any have itbt)
