For the record I don't have a problem with Patel over Santder here. As they both went head o head in the same 11. And Patel came out on top, tellingly though captain always went Patel first.&
Plus santner's batting handing the same downwards trajectory as all this teams' skills.
The spinner selection do sum up how hilarious the Larsen / Hesson combo is.
we have gone, Tests:
India 1: Santner, Sodhi, Craig.
India 2: Santner, Patel
India 3: Santner, Patel
Pak 1: Astle
Pak 2: Santner
Bang 1: Santner
Bang 2: Santner
SAF 1: Santner, Patel
SAF 2: Patel
Likely SAF 3 runours: Patel, Sodhi
You could also put a parellel ODI list of the same time period, as they jump Santner > Sodhi > Astel > Patel, and back again, with some loops.
