among the 2 ,i think pathan is much better than zaheer...But Zaheer is the best bowler....So if pathan is better than Zaheer ,How can he be the best?Then it shud be Pathan...But if Pathan is better,then how can we call zaheer the best...So it shud be zaheer...Frnd...Both are worse...If u want to know who is the best...write it down...its mcgrath

my opinion is that pathan is better than zaheer .zaheer can bowl mre faster than pathan but pathan can swing any ball.he done that so many times .he had taken a hatrick with pakistan with that technique.pathan bowling is slower than zaheer but he has the techniqueto bowl.

Its difficult to say. But looking at current performance it looks like zaheer is best. But u should remember irfan in his days. He was swinging the ball than zaheer. But at the end of the day it doesnt matter. They all play for team india.

as a bowler i think zaheer is way much better currently than irfan pathan but goin g in the past irfan has been more deadlier and high performing than zaheer both in terms of batting and bowling,but his loss of form and remergence of zaheer ,i would vote for zaheer khan just keeping there current form in mind

I think both are good.Zaheer has more exeperience than Pathan.Obviously Zaheer is doing better now.But Pathan is in bad form.Once he get form he will also do better.So I don't say who is better.Ya at present I will choose Zaheer.

I feel Zaheer is definately a better bowler as he has been doing well in recent tiems like in south africa after he's come back in team & is almost a certainity for world cup squad unlike pathan whose bowling has let down the country quite often in recent past. and Pathan is being given chances as India needs a genuine bowling allrounder to help get the balance of side right. Beide Zaheer is more experienced and successful bowler for India comapred to pathan.

i think irfan pathan is the best bowler , because he can swing the ball and move it away rom the batsman and in to the batsman too

well pathan can bat so he has an added advantage over zaheer khan but in the current situation pathan is not able to bowl up to his mark and this is causing him lots of problem so i would vote for zaheer so in the long run if pathan works on his bowling he can be a good competion

both are really very good. but pathan has an added advantage as a player because he can bat better than zaheer so he can be considered as an allrounder. recently he is really out of form but if he gets in form the i think it will be very good for th indian team as he will play a very important role in the world cup this year. i think the team should work with him so that he can gain some form and do good for the indian team in the world cup.

Pathans mind, body and spirit will recover and he will reappear not as a colt but as a thoroughbred. A fine young cricketer has come across hazards others encounter as teenagers.

a argue that pathan is a much better bowler than zaheer khan bcoz pathan is a genuine swing bowler who can swing the ball on most pitches.. its all depending on the conditions.. but on the other hand zaheer is some one who hits the desk n looks for some lateral movement.. if its a green track with moisture in it zaheer will look to be a dangerous bowler to handle.. when u take the case of a flat pitch with no assistance zaheer khan will find it difficult to contain the batsman especially in one day cricket.. pathan is still a youngster n he has been selected into the national team in very short time.. he hardly had any time to learn in domestic cricket.. but zaheer came as a developed bowler.. so i argue pathan wil b far more better at the age of zaheer khan........
