Easiest question

 

[Jack1]

Both

 

[Xix2565]

Both tbh, just need the right conditions as well.

Is the poll public? I want to see which idiots voted for spin.

 

[ataraxia]

Someone changed their vote from spin to pace, perhaps in anticipation of the poll opening lol

Anyway, I prefer to watch spin because (a) it's much clearer to see and (b) it results in more fun cricket; watching spin be smashed is pretty delightful (whereas constant flicks and hooks aren't as enjoyable for me)

I voted for fast, but what’s wrong with spin?

 

[Burgey]

It’s effete.

And also far too conditions dependent to be even worthy of comparison with fast bowling

 

[BazBall21]

Fast bowling is better to watch and also plays a bigger role in Test Cricket than spin bowling across conditions.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Good fast bowling is more exciting. But batsmen looking stupid against good spin bowling is much, much funnier.

In all honesty I always found watching a great wrist spinner at work to be more absorbing than a menacing fast bowler or a high quality swing exponent. The Murali-Warne-Kumble era was a great time to be a cricket fan.

 

[Adorable Asshole]

Genuine fast bowling is way better watch than anything in cricket.

But i prefer spin to pseudo fast bowling like that of Mcgrath.
