"They're the best ever, I reckon, Lee told AAP. It's different eras, and hard to compare, but I would put them above us. If you look purely on stats, everyone has taken over 250 Test wickets, and that's never been done before."
"Scott Boland, if he is included in that, is a bit like Michael Kasprowicz, didn't really get an opportunity but a wonderful bowler. These guys are so good that the Australian public won't recognise how good they are until"
Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Nathan Lyon and Josh Hazlewood have combined for 389 Tests and 1,586 wickets. Three of the four have passed 300 Test wickets, with Hazlewood on 295 and expected to join them after injury. In the 35 Tests the quartet played together Australia won 22, lost nine and drew four, while the four took 567 wickets together, a record. Scott Boland has 69 Test wickets at 18.17 and the best Test average of any bowler in the past 90 years. The early-2000s group of McGrath, Warne, Gillespie and Lee had a combined 1,842 wickets and won 10 of 16 Tests together.
