WorldWide Spinners?

[lancashire666]

I don't remember Monty being warned for bowling a bouncer.

it happened in the 2006 pakistan series in england, he didnt bowl a bouncer, it was a bit short but not that much, and it just rose a mile off the service and got warned for it, was pretty funny because it was a total accadent

I don't remember it myself but it sounds like a complete freak delivery.

it hit a huge crack in the pitch, it was next to the rough a little further away from the crease which he was aiming at and hit it a couple of times, sky got a little excited about it which was why i remember it so much lol

Agreed. I'd definitely put Harris in the top 4 right now. His rise over the last 2 seasons has been great.

I'm not sure if this was mentioned anywhere before, but Vengsarkar actually believes that there are a lack of quality spinners in India. That was about a month back. Also, the top 5 Ranji performers this year were fast-medium/medium pacers. Here are the top Indian spinners:

International Caps
Anil Kumble, Harbhajan Singh, Murali Kartik, Piyush Chawla, Ramesh Powar

Domestic
Pragyan Ojha, Amit Mishra

 

[Sureshot]

South Africa have some mediocre spinners. Rather have a good spinner than 2/3 mediocre spinners.

 

[SciD]

That Amit Mishra is good spinner. Hes better than Chawla but has no hair on head so Xhawla gets selected.

 

[Dare]

Only India, NZ and RSA(will you believe this) have spinner strength at this time.

i would add Sri Lanka to that sid, they got the best in Murli and the backups aren't that bad.

 

[freddiw]

Ojha is in the IPL and I am very much looking forward to seeing him in action

 

[Karachi Xpress]

none of them are yound and all have very little left

What do you mean by all have very little lefT?? They all have a long career ahead. Afridi is 28...Malik is 26 and Kaneria is also 27. They all have too much time to play cricket.

I wish this happened on BLIC and EA cric but you got no balled but then they would overdo it and everything thats not a yorker you will get no balled.

Yes, i have learned about the horror stories about spinner bouncers on BLIC online.
