Clarke Best Player of spin Really?

[Jersey #10]

Why? Does the ball swing for a spinner in England? Isn't it always tougher to play quality spinners in the SC' date=' that too on a Mumbai kinda track, than it is in England?[/quote'] Dude Pujara averages a grand 10.33 in away tests and you are comparing him to Clarke. Sure spinning tracks are deadly in India but it's not as hard as playing in foreign conditions. Isn't it factually known by now that playing away is harder than home?

You are clearly comparing apples to oranges here. I am not comparing Pujara to Clarke here. He really has a long way to go before being in that bracket. Moreover, the sample set of abroad test matches for Pujara is a grand 2 tests. What I did mean was that Pujara handled spin very well in both the series in India. Also, he faced the same set of bowlers on more tougher conditions to play spin and he reveled.

Tendulkar averages grand total of 0 in Test matches played in Saudi Arabia too.

Clarke was electric against spin when he first came. Not many can cut Murali repeatedly without getting out. Clark, Sehwag and Petersen were the best attacking players of spin in last 10 years. Mahela, Dravid, Hussey were best with defensive technique. SRT was in between.

In Bangalore Aus batted first and Clarke scored century on day 1 when the pitch was very flat.Dont think it shows his quality against spin bowling imo
