Bumrah only 16. Shocked

What have his Test performances been like recently?

--------------------------------------------------------------

I don't take ICC rankings seriously, of course.

Cummins of course is the key bowler for Oz (and the obvious emergency option for next captain if the current one shows irreversible age-related decline)...

But his rating is reported to be the fifth highest of all time. Do you believe he is in the fifth-best form of any Test bowler in history right now? If that were true, the Ashes would be safe.

Bumrah is a relative newcomer to the big time.

10 Tests only. 49 wickets @ 21.89

Last Test was in Sydney, in January, this year. He took 1/62 & 0/2.

Joe is struggling, but if we look at the last 3, 4, 5 years we'll see that all of the first three you name are averaging 60 or 70+ in that period. The pitches are just getting flatter and flatter, as batsmen worldwide are getting poorer and poorer. In Virat's favour is his form in the shorter forms of the game. (Even if we are traditionalists and think those forms are worthless, we could imagine a Test situation when T20 skills are important.) In Kane's favour is that he bats at 3 (unlike e.g. S. Waugh hiding at 5).


Baum notes: "But the thinning begins quickly. No batsman beyond those three averages 50. Also in the top 10 are Williamson's New Zealand compatriots Henry Nicholls and Tom Latham, also South Africa's Aiden Markram. Credit to all for the careers they are forging, but if this were a trivia quiz question it is improbable that all three would leap to mind."

It would be more unbiased if Baum simply noted that Latham is the wicketkeeper. I wonder what Gilchrist's highest ranking was. And I can't remember him ever opening in Test cricket. To have a keeper open in Test cricket and rank that high suggests all sorts of things about the state of batting and pitches.

On 30 December 2017, Smith reached a Test batting rating of 947, the second-highest of all time, only behind Don Bradman's 961.

Smith's last 11 Ashes innings: 141*, 40, 6, 239, 76, 102, 83, 144, 142, 92, 101*

1166 runs @ 129.56 - quite incredible.

Smith has batted well, but this really just makes us (or should make us) question the ratings. It's very hard to do ratings well, probably impossible on a historical basis.

Cummins, cricinfo I think told us, has the fifth-highest of all time. He's bowling well, but if that were really true, Oz would be 3-0 up in the Ashes now, not struggling to save the series.

Jasprit Bumrah: The complete bowler, whatever the format

https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/27551075/complete-bowler-format

"Virat Kohli has called Jasprit Bumrah the most complete bowler in world cricket, and it's difficult to argue with that, given the sort of numbers that Bumrah has racked up over the last three-and-a-half years.
...

The numbers so far are staggering: in ODIs, he has picked up 103 wickets from 58 games at an average of 21.88 and an economy rate of 4.49; in T20Is, 42 games have fetched him 51 wickets at an economy rate of 6.71 (apart from 82 wickets in 77 IPL games). But it's in Test matches that he has sparkled the brightest, taking 62 wickets from 12 matches at an average of 19.24.

With a 20-wicket cut-off in each format, Bumrah is the only bowler to average less than 22 in Tests, ODIs and T20Is in the last ten years. He is also one of only three bowlers to take 50-plus wickets in his first 12 Tests, and 100-plus in his first 58 ODIs; Shane Bond and Brett Lee are the others.

Before going further, though, a caveat. These are still very early days in Bumrah's international career. Great bowlers achieve their greatness by maintaining their standards over several years; Bumrah has been around less than two years as a Test-match bowler. However, in that period, he has played Tests in different conditions, with different balls, and has shown himself to be good enough to adapt and learn quickly, the last evident in his debut Test itself, when he followed a nervy and wayward first-innings show - 1 for 73 - with a much-improved second innings - 3 for 39. His outstanding skill set is complemented by a remarkably even and cool temperament. The superlatives have more than a little justification: in the last 60 years, only three other bowlers have taken 62 or more wickets in their first 12 Tests at a sub-20 average."

He’s a bit of a spud. Let’s see how his stats look after he bowls to BradSmith in Australia for a series.
