Talking about first Indian innings. Moeen got turn' date=' bowled better than [b']our specialist spinner and he was supposed to be a part timer.
You are not referring to that darter Jaddu, are you?

He was supported well by pacers in NZ and here in England' date=' he did not do much.[/quote'] yes,did nothing.still doesnt make him a part timer. If used positively he can do better.I doubt any of our spinners can do well if just defensively in first innings.He was giving more flight in 2nd innings here maybe due to pitch but match situation was gone :cantstop:

Left arm spinners cannot be attacking. They are always a defensive option. You can play him as a 5th bowler to contain, not as 4th. You need at least 4 attacking bowlers. We are missing a half decent leg spinner here because pitches are drying quickly.

Agree about using Ashwin/Jaddu as 5th bowler only.4 seamers is must.

Finger spinners are limited unless who have an offiee wo can bend the rules and bowl doosra. Finger spinners who really give it a rip like swann with a classical action or bedi are hard to come by.

We atleast can have someone like Moeen Ali.Ashwin can easily do what hes doing. Its also about finding the right length and pace to bowl here.Its different to India.
