In all fairness to Powell and Patel, I've seen little of them so put them there. I thought Udal would have a decent tour of Pakistan - I was proved badly wrong.

Kaneria misses out to Harbhajan because of his apparent unsuitability to One day cricket.

There has only been one spinner faster to a hundred ODI wickets. Saqlain Mushtaq took 53 games, whilst myself and Warne both needed sixty.

Thats a pretty accurate order but I might be tempted to place Rafique above Kartik and he did ask you to sort them into classes rather than numerical order of quality.
