It might be too early to say but Bumrah could go down as the best fast
bowler EVER provided he plays for another three years and about 30+
tests and keeps his strike rate and average about the same it is now.

9 out of his 11 5-fors are outside India.

His average on mostly spin friendly Indian pitches is 17.19 and strike
rate is 35.5 in 12 tests though the sample is kind of small.

Australian World Cup winning all-rounder Glen Maxwell believes Jasprit
Bumrah is a complete package and is going to go down as the best fast
bowler of all time.

With the spotlight on Indian pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah ahead of the
second Test match of the Border Gavaskar Trophy at Adelaide starting
December 6, Australian cricketer Glen Maxwell has heaped praise on the
seamer for the opening Test at Perth. Bumrah took eight wickets in
IndiarCOs 295-run win over Australia and Maxwell believed that the Indian pacerrCOs ability to take the ball away makes him rCyextremely difficultrCO to face.

rCLIt almost feels like his bouncer and his length ball are very similar
where his release point is. And itrCOs really hard to, I suppose, pick up
the difference between those. The ball always feels like itrCOs coming
back into you. And herCOs got the ability to take the ball away.
