Joe Shmoe's attitude to spin in Australia sucks.

Lol no think how much more often that happens with part-time spinners though. Clarke, Border, North, Katich, Bevan all have test 6 fers. How many does Brett Lee or Andrew Flintoff have?

When you're on, as a spinner, you can bowl a 20 over spell in a row.

Ishant Sharma took a 7 fer at the home of cricket bouncing out England's entire batting lineup.

as someone who has bowled off-spin for twenty years i can tell you I have much more respect for pacemen. it is simply a harder skill to acquire. sorry if this hurts your feelings

Haha you really could have found a much, much better example than that. He took three wickets.. against Zimbabwe.. only one of which was actually out.. and it was a half volley drilled for a catch to short cover.

look this is silly
Clarke, North, Katich, Borde and Bevan. Specialist Batsmen who had a go at spinning and produced insanely results and all have test 6fers. Even if it was only one day, they were unplayable for that one day.
How many times has a part-time pace bowler done something like this? Sourav Ganguly is a better example for you OS and he never came close. Ishant trained pace all his life even if he's not up to scratch compared to aussie pacemen. Check and mate.

there is very little chance of Head getting a NO 50 with a SR of less than 75. It'd be a joke if he shut up shop and didn't try to hit sixes at the end if we can still win it

Paul Collingwood was pretty comparable to lots of part-time spinners too.
