Pretty sure Jeets picked up at least in the first innings of that game, so the spinners grabbed 2.
I do think that in future summers we should still be looking to play a spinner, if only because we'll never progress away from home without one, and you can't really be expected to develop as a player if you're only picked once out of every 2 years for a 2 test series against batsmen who are extremely good players of spin already. It'd be like us giving up on specialist openers and just picking the best middle-order bats in the country to fill the spots.
