To Spin or Not to Spin

Graeme Swann has spoken out this week in his blog, saying although England may have suffered a series defeat to New Zealand they are still improving as a team.

'Its a setback for us, but Peter Moores has said we are a team on a journey'. Graeme Swann is a relatively new member to the England one day set up however he has impressed in the small number of games he has played. He is unlikely to threaten Monty Panesars test place when the test series comes around but his off spin has provided a new dimension to an England attack.

This then was a suprise to Jonathon Agnew who said that 'England got the team selection wrong!'. Usually teams opt for the two spinners at Christchurcgh as it can be a slow turning pitch so Aggers was dumfounded when finding England had failed to pick a specialist spinner.

During the test series i expect Monty Panesar to play an important role in helping England to hopefully another series victory.
