Which is the worst side facing spin?

I think South Africa is the worst side facing spin and that's including Zimbabwe. They got battered by a really average SL team in Tests and also played really bad against them in one of ODIs getting out for a meagre total when the series was always won but still lost wickets to some really good but not extra ordinary bowling by Akila. England defeated the same SL team with ease and also to point out that SA don't have any outstanding spinner like Australia and England.

SA or Aus, but in the case of Aus it depends heavily upon who is selected to play. Aus with Smith, Maxwell & Handscomb would be very handy.

I'd guess it would be a similar story with SA but I'm not as familiar with their players

Apart from Maharaj being a better spin bowler than anything England have?

India is certainly the most overrated. I don't think the current lot are necessarily bad players of spin in the technical sense, but they give journeymen spinners far too much respect.
