now that we know that the claim of sachin disproportionately shouldering the batting burden for india through his career has been debunked, how about the bowling burden?

let me suggest the following metric:

(total wkts taken during any period by individual bowler)* (runs conceded by team during same period)/((total wkts taken by team during same period)*(runs conceded by individual bowler during the same period))

without even calculating it, i bet the career average of this suggested metric for kumble is going to exceed his nearest indian rival (one of kapil, chandra, or srinath). will be interesting to do this for all cream of the cream bowlers around the world and compare them in different periods.

basically the ratio of the inverse of bowling averages of the bowler to that of his team.
