New Zealand star Pacer Locky Ferguson recently chose 5 superstars cricketers as the top 5 test bowlers of all time, except for the choice of Dale Stan, Glenn McGrath and Mitchell Starc. He also ignored the modern-day test from India, Jasprit Bumrah.
Locky Ferguson has chosen five famous bowlers as the biggest test bowlers of all time, ignoring spinners. However, three of the top 5 highest wickets in the format are three spinners from three different countries.
Lockey Ferguson named Jaspreet Bumrah the top 5 Test bowlers
As Kiwi’s veteran had chosen his all-time top 5 Test bowlers, he shocked with a set of all names, as it did not include Test cricket, Muttiah Muralitharan, or the most wicket-taker in Shane Warne.

Given that he has named only pacers in the top 5, even then, he has not included the choice of great people such as James Anderson or Glenn McGrath, or even Red-Ball Cricket, Jasprit Bumrah, Mitchell Starc, or modern talent of Kagiso Rabada.
Their pics were bent with their own strategy and perception, which did not fit with the general view of the cricket fans. In a conversation with the Cricketcker, he chose the choice of Shane Bond, former Kiwi Pesar whose test career was affected by injuries, and ended with just 87 wickets in 18 games at a remarkable average of 22.09.
In many mythological Australian seams, he undoubtedly chose one of the best, Mitchell Johnson. Johnson was one of the most devastating left pacers of his generation. He made a punished career with 313 wickets in his Test career.
No Tim Southee or Glenn McGrath, but Ferguson named 2 Pakistani Quick in its list
Paer of New Zealand did not even consider Tim Southee to be one of the greatest Kiwi pacers and was one of the best since Richard Hadley.
Instead he opted for two Pakistani pacers; However, the pair was not a contemporary Wasim-Vakar pair; It was the pair of Akram-Akhtar which attracted Kiwi’s attention. Shoaib Akhtar, with 178 wickets in 46 tests, and with 414 Test wickets, the legendary Pacer Wasim Akram made it on his list.
The last name of this list is a good pick, as he named the Sir Kurtley Ambrose of the West Indies, which is one of the deadliest red balls in the history of cricket. Sir Ambrose ended with 405 Test wickets, a historic 20.99 and 22 five-wicket halls.
Lockey chose Virat Kohli over Rohit Sharma
First, except for Jasprit Bumrah from the list of top test bowlers, Ferguson added to his secrets, seen Rohit Sharma’s bridge shot as one of the best shots on the field.
Indian veteran batsman Rohit Sharma is known as a dynamic white ball cricketer, and one of his rare abilities is to hit a six easily. The batsman has a remarkable bridge shot, which he can pull from any length, which is a little on the small side.
On the other hand, Virat Kohli, other experienced, is known for his elegant cover drive, and when asked to take between two shots, which looks better than the end of a bowler, Ferguson claimed (through CRICTRCKER):
“None of them looks better than the end of the bowler. But, Kohli’s cover drive.”
