I think yes, Swann has got Devon Smith out a lot, but 34 wickets in 7 tests is a more than decent start regardless. Personally, I liked the way he stuck at it in India, on debut, and took big wickets. And against the WI, apart from Devon Smith (5) the wickets include Sarwan (2), Chanderpaul (3) and Gayle (2), and so it's not as if he didn't get out decent players.

Also, is a good fielder, a capable number 8/9 and just a refreshing kind of bloke to have in the team.
