Australia's Test bowling quartet ranks among world's best

Australia’s current Test bowling quartet, comprising Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, and Nathan Lyon, is being recognized as one of the best bowling attacks in the world over the last 50 years. The unit has set new ground by taking an unprecedented number of wickets as a four-man group.

Following a decisive victory against South Africa in Durban last week, the attack has been compared to legendary bowling units, including the West Indian teams of the late 1970s and the Australian combination of the early 2000s featuring Glenn McGrath and Shane Warne. The current group is noted for its balance of precision, pace, and elite spin.
