jimmy anderson vs glenn mcgrath

[gothamprince]

in my opinion jimmy is great bowler but 600 wickets too much for his calibre. there are many better bowlers than him

[zarathustra]

He took that many wickets due to his amazing fitness which let him play so many matches. 

So McGrath is definitely a greater bowler but Jimmy Anderson is as amazing a physical specimen as you can be at his age

Glenn McGrath never instilled fear either he was a match winner for sure and so is Jimmy Anderson although not as great as McGrath

The greatest bowler that never lasted long enough due to injuries was Shane Bond

At his best, simply unplayable. And that action, what a thing of beauty. I bet Ponting still wets himself thinking about the time he had facing Bond.

shane bond is great but there are many bowlers much better than him like west indies bowlers of 80s and dennis lillee, jeff thompson, allan donald, shaun pollock, glenn mcgrath, wasim, waqar, kapil dev

How do you term better?

No way Pollock or Kapil were better than Bond. They just had longer careers. In the short career he had the most impactful was Bond.
