India's Best Ever ODI Spin Bowler?

[srbhkshk]

Kinda contradictory to the ATG moniker.

I guess none of them really is to be fair.

 

[Daemon]

tbf the list of great ODI spinners is very short, relatively speaking

KulCha didn't have to bowl to the best of the ODI batters and I may change my mind in 5 years time but right now, has to be Kumble and Harbhajan.

My problem with spinners, is that I literally grew up watching Warne and Muralitharan so I`m perplexed why they have not been more quality spinners throughout cricket history? Its an unintended bias I realise I have.

Sunil Joshi has the finest fiver of all candidates

 

[Daemon]

Joshi has 69 wickets in 69 matches.

Nice.

Nice.

His Test debut was also played from June 6-9 in '96

T20 strike rate of 90.69 :o

 

[indiaholic]

Joshi ****s.

 

[Daemon]

Slightly annoyed that he was born in 1970, a year earlier and it would've been illuminati confirmed

 

[vcs]

He had a nice action TBF. ***** probably idolized him and Raju in the '90s

 

[Daemon]

Anyone able to locate some Ramesh Powar highlights?

Bhajji was pretty good, tbf and reasonably athletic.

Which is a damning indictment of India's fielding until very recently. Bhaji is not someone I look at and think "that's an athletic guy".

TMI, vcs, TMI. We know you are a proud Bangalore boy.

True, but he was a good fielder all the same, safe as a catcher most of the time and decent arm from the outfield. Can dive around and save runs as well.

 

[Migara]

Kumble and Ashwin. Only two bowlers who could bowl at any stage of the game

ODI wise Kumble, Saqlain, Hogg and Qadir all were ATG quality. Mendis was ATG while he lasted. Among newer ones, Rashid Khan is quality to be ATG. But I expect Mujeeb - ur - Rahman to beat him to title.

Yuvi in 2011 worldcup. His performance was better than Harbhajan with ball.
