Re: How much longer do we let Kaneria "develop" into a world class bowler
^ 70% of kaneria's wickets are against top/middle order batsmen. think the contention there is that he takes longer to get them out, although i havent really seen any basis for saying that. unless he has an incredible average and strike rate in that 30% against tail enders, the numbers suggest that his figures against the top order cant really be that bad (since 70 percent of his overall excellent numbers are coming from the top/middle order)
GA i too think having a second spinner on tour and resting kaneria after bad matches should be an option. i think he should remain an automatic selection for the squad, but not the playing 11.
