Well of course Jim Laker is unanimously rated as English best ever off-spinner for obvious reasons. But Swann performaces since last winter vs South Africa have been the best performances by an English spinner since Underwood (although Tufnell has his period in the early 90s) & the best from an English offie since Illingworth in the 70s.
So how highly should he be rated ATM. Best since Laker?. Or is he still be hind or on par with the likes of Ray Illingworth, David Allen, Roy Tattersal & Fred Titmis?. Discuss..
