When India and Australia line up for the first Test at Perth on November 22, it will be a feast for fast-bowling connoisseurs as Jasprit Bumrah and Pat Cummins weave some pacy magic. Former Australian fast bowler Shaun Tait in an interaction with The Indian Express raves about their skill-set and offers his views on which of the two is more difficult to face for batsmen while elucidating what makes them different. Differently lethal. Excerpts: Where do you put Jasprit Bumrah and Pat Cummins among the list of great fast bowlers of all time? Shaun Tait: Pat Cummins has got to be arguably the best cricketer in the world, even with a bat. If you talk about his captaincy as well, he’s a very successful captain of Australia. He’s the number one bowler and he can make runs as well. So from a leadership point of view, he’s maybe the most valuable cricketer on the earth.

Watch: Shaun Tait Involved In Fiery Argument With Pakistani Journos Over Performance Of Fast Bowlers

Published by Webster

Over the last few weeks, the performances of Pakistani fast bowlers haven’t been as well as their reputation suggests. While the absence of Shaheen Shah Afridi has played a big role in Pakistan’s below-par show as a bowling unit, questions have been raised over the performance of the team’s bowling coach Shaun Tait as well. When Tait addressed media after the Day 4 of the 2nd Test against New Zealand in Karachi, he was involved in a fiery argument with journalists. A journalist termed Pakistani pacers’ performance “poor” as he asked the Australian how can justify the way the bowling unit has delivered in the last 5 Tests. “Poor performances in five Test matches by Pakistani fast bowlers and inconsistent performances by the spinners.
