I'm gonna go 50/50 on this one.
Bike was going too fast and the pedestrian was lazy in just about every way.

If that on the left was a bicycle lane, then it's pedestrian's fault 100%. If it's just a line marking the end of the road/lane, then 50-50: pedestrian shouldn't have crossed out of "zebra" and shouldn't have run, definitely not run-stop-run-stop. However, if it wasn't a bicycle lane, cyclist shouldn't have undertaken a car, but overtaken it.

It WAS a cycle lane, but there was also a big red bus in the way of it.
The pedestrian had already started crossing so technically had the right of passage, but the cyclist should've slowed down in caution anyway.
Even so, both a bit careless.
The pedestrian will think twice when he next crosses a road.
The cyclist will probably do it again tomorrow. :lol
