I know Saqlain is not in the team for the last two years but still he is one of the best off spinners of the world without any controvercy(in his action).So select who is the Best.

Saqlain has the best bowling average and strike rate in ODI history.

But still Murali is a better spinner of the ball. I wish Saqlain had been fit, then we could have a comparison between them on the basis of performance rather than talent.

I hope Saqlain gets fit and return to international cricket soon as he is still quite young and lethal with the ball.

Saqi, we love you and want you back!!!

How to compare Murali the legend with someone who was THROWN out of the team
"I go by present and present says - Sachin IS the BEST , Shewag is going to be the next best and Dhoni's is gonna rock the world with his brutal assaults - GOD help the rest of the world"

Saqlain is an awesome ODI spinner. I think he's the quickest to reach as many wickets as he's reached. He's only 28 and I want him to come back to the team and beat Wasim Akram's record...and go on to take 600 ODI wickets.
Regulation without integration leads to suicide.
