Thats very true, we have just brought our 3rd spinner into the attack....Javid.

The problem maybe the fact that they have 4 spinners in their attack

[ADVILLAFAN]

I worry about Will Smith. It may be my imagination, but I think he always does well against us.

*hopes to cause Smith's douwnfall*.

We'll just have to get Trotty spinning the ball.
