Graeme Swann

Swann gave orthodox off-spin an attacking edge, ripping the ball with a big flick and drift, and he struck early in his spells. With Monty Panesar he spun England to a series win in India in 2012-13, rare for touring spinners. He also took wickets in English conditions that normally favour seam, a sign of control and dip rather than reliance on the pitch.
