monty panesar

Picture

Panesar's one-day debut was delayed, presumably because of doubts about how his occasionally hapless fielding and raw batting might fit into the gameplan.

He has worked hard at all facets of his game and has a potential with the bat which it seems was not immediately spotted.

He is possibly the top finger spinner in the world, and hopefully Peter Moores will not have the same doubts about his all round game that Duncan Fletcher did.
