Agreed, of course the comparison pointers change if he comes up with a great tournament winning garland of performances in 2019 WC. Marshall is definitely better so far IMO, but it is an unfair/incomplete comparison before Steyn's career finishes.For all Steyn's undisputed quality, he could go a bit wrong in ODIs from time to time. Take the 2015 WC semi final for example, a lot is made of selecting an undercooked Philander over the fit and firing Kyle Abbott, but Steyn having a real off day was probably a greater contributing factor to their loss. Personally if anything I would rate Morne Morkel equal or almost slightly ahead as a 50 over bowler
