rate these spinners in the order of not greatness, not potential but on their spin bowling. how much they spin it, how much variation have they got, are their variations any good, excluding all wicket counts, rate the following: Shane Warne Muttiah Muralitharan Harbhajan Singh Anil Kumble Ashley Giles Monty Panesar Nicky Boje Daniel Vettori Danish Kaneria Saqlain Mushtaq Shoaib Malik Chawla Stuart Macgill Chris Gayle Andrew Symonds Brad Hogg and any others i have forgotten? good luck, the top 2 are pretty obvious but after that it could get interesting. |

If Vittori was a right hander would he be a leg spinner? |

Leg spinners normally generate more spin than the offies. But look at Murali changing the whole scenario with the superb innovations in this field. I wonder some day he would be able to generate 180 degrees spin from the wicket. So is Warne. Leggie legend and one of the greatest spinner of the cricket ball. Anil Kumble is not a great spinner of the ball, yet he is a very successfull bowler. |

180 degrees! never! the biggest turner ever was probably shane warne to chanderpaul, between 60 and 70 degrees, 180 degrees would come back! |

. But you know sometimes things are exaggerated just for the sake of a little bit more emphasiz. Even 60-70 degrees is too much to play even for a good batsman.
