We often see South Africa, England, New Zealand and Australian batsmen collapse against spinners like they are playing spin for the first time in spite of having cricketing history of more than 100 years. South Africa were clueless against SL in SL this year, Australia have folded in India like pack of cards, England batsmen have batted like tailenders against spin and NZ have also choked against spinners (Clueless against Yasir Shah recently).

 

Among all these teams who are totally mediocre against spinners, who is the worst of them all.

please add india as well .. not many teams gift wickets to moeen bhai

Moeen Ali is now their primary spinner.  He bowls more than Rashid Ali in most matches and as many or more than Jack Leach. Moeen took most wickets for England amongst all spinners they played last year or two. I think apart from Rahane nobody is suspect trouble spin and we probably are best players of spin even today. Lyon has troubled us but he has been far ruthless against others. We played him much well.

Our spin quartet too exposed a lot of these teams.  Prasanna, Bedi, Chandra and Venkat were the best spin attack to have ever played together in history of cricket.  Sadly many a times one of three 4 would compete for 3 places when everyone was fit. It would have been wonderful had SA been allowed to play against other international teams.  They seem to be the worse even against average spinners.

Definitely South Africa

Outside those four, West Indies are hopeless too and the worst vs spin

Yeah would really be fun if our spin quartet could play against the banned South African team. Graeme Pollock, Barry Richards and Peter Pollock were gun batsmen too but it would be great contest to see them play out spin quartet.

I don't remember any batsman other than steve smith dominating our spinners in indian conditions. Ofcourse i am talking about test matches. Back in 2012 KP & Cook too did very well.

None of these modern batters have done consistently well against spin vs India in India, let's see what Smith does when his purple patch wears off & Aus don't have access to sandpaper.

Of the 4 teams mentioned, England played pretty well...

NZ is not bad

So it's between Australia & SA...

SA has to be worst and then Australia
