Best ODI Spinner in the World (Right Now)

Athlai

Not Terrible
It's Mitchell Santner btw.

Removing all pointless bilateral series and just looking at games that actually mater (the last two world cups). It's pretty clear Santner is the best at the craft of the current crop.

Honourable mention to Jadeja

Santner is the ideal second spinner in an ODI team.

Never gets smashed, does the holding role perfectly, is a #7.5 with the bat and fields like a demon.

Jadeja is good for similar reasons but he does have more days when someone just gets stuck into him.

I instinctively rebel against this assertion Athlai but I haven't paid attention to enough jamodis to counter you.

This except he does drop a few dollies.

He's a premium Nathan McCullum, and I mean that in a nice way. You don't expect Santner to be the best player in the team but he will usually do his job.
