No he was always behind Leach
Don't really need 2 spinners as it's not really Ciderbad anymore. But when they have Vaughan who can bat they don't need Bashir.
He's not being kept on by Somerset though. Who he ends up we shall see.
Root the golden arm.
Silver Silva
International Vice-Captain
What a ripper from Root

Root is clearly a better spinner than Bashir.

if he's 3rd choice spinner at Somerset then how is he Englands number 1
what a ripper by Root

Yeah that is also another way of putting it.

Do many counties want an average spinner who can't bat and is poor in the field?
Least Monty Panesar could bowl, he was the last spinner who couldn't bat or field we had.

That would be mental if he's without a club but playing in the Ashes in the winter.
Durham spinners are even shitter so we'll take anyone.

Whatever it takes!!!
"silken" is not an adjective I would use for any of their knocks.
Now, if you had said VVS....

I mean, I never mind home teams preparing tracks to suit them as long as they are not blatantly unplayable. But yeah, there is absolutely no difference between Aussies preparing bouncy roads, SC sides preparing turners and RSA preparing seaming pitches and what England are doing with Bazball.
King Kane
International Vice-Captain
He is England's best spinner as well as their best batsman, I'm sure he gets well paid from the ECB but whatever he is getting they should double it.

I think he is actually about 16 but really, what he does is amazing even if he is 16. lolHow is that kid 14 while some of them other U19s look more like 14

Did you quote the wrong guy lol? Anyway, yeah was being gracious calling the others that. Gill has that effortless willowy quality that only VVS and Azhar on the legside had. Rohit and KL are pleasing on the eye too but they have a bit of power to their strokeplay at times.
