I really doubt they would take Petersen as their spinning option, it would probably interfere with his opening the batting, and I don't think he has taken a Test wicket, although he bowls a bit in List A and FC cricket.
I think they are far more likely to bring Peterson as their spinning option.
Nah I think they'll take Petersen
Well they did play Justin Ontong as a specialist spinner in India once, so it is not impossible.

Haha quality.
He's no Nicky Boje though!
Harris is a god among men though.
Owned sachin and Dravid in 2006 and prevented a famous series win for India.
Bring back Paul and Nicky I reckon.
Yeah, with the fast bowlers SA has at the moment they only need a spinner in the Peterson/Harris mode. A guy who can tie up an end and sneak you a wicket or two an innings.
I think Harris was probably a better containing bowler than Peterson though, he can get a bit tonked, but he definitely gives it more of a rip than Harris used to.
Bring the great man back then ffs
I'm worried for SA in the sense that I'm not sure they have a plan B most of the time. One of these days Philander is going to have a series where he's under par and a guy like Morkel will have to be given extra responsibility with the new ball.
