Essex captain Ronnie Irani says his county colleague, Pakistan leg spinner Danish Kaneria, has the talent to become the world’s best spin bowler. Irani tells BBC Sport he believes Kaneria can bowl all the necessary deliveries to be a top leg spinner.
we are already seeing great things from danish... hes well on his way.. and not a one match wonder.. like salman butt proved to be in the batting department...
but truly the world of spin is/was ruled by these 4 bowlers
Shane warne
muralitharan
saqlain
abdul qadir
anil kumble wishes he was in that last .. he wudve if he wasnt smashed for 3 sixes and a four in a row by saeed bhai. the look on his face was priceless.
and yes i agree salman needs time.. but i think other players should be given chances as well... taufeeq for example should be tried more with yasir...
Yes, Saqlain was one excellent spinners ever among others in Pakistani Cricket team. I heard that he is trying to come back… but not this series, he might, however, make it to the england series in october
Akbar, ur rite but I was counting all time greatest spinners in both forms. I don't know if Saqi qualifies for that. But Abdul Qadir, Warnie and Murali are sure in that league. Saqi was a great spinner and I would say Denish is just half way through to Saqi's level. I hope he will be innovative in years to come to survive and will stay in the team for long time supported by his strong built.
IMO ,, Abdul Kadir had the full grasp of the skill. He took less time to reach his peak and was 'On' with the word 'Go'.
Saqlain & Mushtaq are the main talents we have "still available" they are the true oven baked class Pakistan has so to speak.
Danish Kaneria still has a long long way to go, and the way things are still don't look so good. He has his hands full of agendas to do some thing about his fielding & batting.
