Who, in your opinion, was a better bowler?

Jeff Thomson 

Avg in Tests - 28 , Away - 33.49. Home - 24.98 in 51 matches

Avg in ODI's - 35.30

Shoaib Akhtar 

Avg in Tests - 25.69, Away - 27.32. Home - 26.48. Neutral - 16.85 in 46 matches

Avg in ODI's - 24.97

Both were express pace bowlers.

I havn't seen Thomson bowl apart from a few videos on YT, but based purely on stats Akhtar seems like a better bowler.

Maybe someone who has seen both can give us a better comparison?
