Rank these ATGs against fast bowling

PlayerComparisons

International Captain
How would you rank these modern era ATGs (imo) against fast bowling? Fast bowling would include all of these: high pace, high bounce, and seam movement

Tendulkar
Smith
Lara
Ponting
Kallis
Sangakkara
Root
Dravid
De Villiers

Don't project your biases on me.
I’m the least biased person on CW. Actively advocate for English players all the time. Consider Anderson an ATG. Rate Ponting below contemporaries from other nations. Still refuse to put Smith definitely above Lara and Hammond. Don’t rate Lillee very highly. Think Cummins is a little overrated tbh, compared to Rabada.

I'm the least biased person on CW. I barely know any Bangladeshi player except Shakib.

I am the least biased person on CW, I always back Warne, an Australian player.

There are others?

I mean he only has one competition, and nobody could call you biased for thinking he’s above or below. Speaking of which, I do rate Murali higher as a bowler than Warne. Mostly based on Murali’s performance in Australia.

I also love Ponting but think he's better than Sangakkara, Kallis and Dravid.
