is this from the last game at taunton where Leach took 12fer? I wonder
who will be the spinners for the Pakistan tour. Bashir almost certainly,
but Hartley hasnt played much, and Ahmed hasnt taken many wkts. Theres
also some doubt about the itinerary with suggestions 1 test might be
played in UAE.

Looks like it must be.

Things like that don't seem to bother the England selectors, though. I
think I'd take Bashir, Ahmed and Leach, though I wouldn't be surprised
if they go for Hartley instead of Leach. Either way that would give one
offie, one SLA and one wrist-spinner. If anything should happen to
Bashir between now and the tour, it wouldn't even surprise me if they
took Ahmed's 17-year-old younger brother, who took a 10-fer across the
two innings for Notts against Surrey the other day.

Or even all three, apparently.
