The emergence of Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammad Amir, Kagiso Rabada and others have given a new set of fast bowlers, who will lead the charts in the years to come. While it becomes tough to choose the top three of the current era, former Australian International Glenn McGrath has stepped up and did the tough task.
The veteran of 124 tests and 250 ODIs picked Australia’s Pat Cummins as his first choice and said that he gives his 100% on the field. “Runs in hard all day, give his 100%. his work ethic, his attitude is amazing. He is a nice person, quality batsman, and a brilliant fielder. He is an all-rounder, but as a fast bowler, you want him in your team as he gives a 100% whenever he goes out there,” McGrath told ESPNCricinfo.
The man of the tournament of 2007 world cup further chose South African quick Kagiso Rabada as his second choice and said that the 24-year-old has ability to build pressure by bowling quick and fiery deliveries.
McGrath went onto pick India’s Jasprit Bumrah, who he had worked with at MRF pace bowling academy in Chennai. “He bowls great yorkers in one-day and shorter versions with the old ball, and that’s his strength and he is getting better and better with time. He will be a key player for India in World Cup,” McGrath said.
