When one has a look at all the economy and strike rates of all the spinners involved in this years WC, one can see why I say JP is in good company and more than capable of doing a job much like the list confirms
First stat is runs per over, second is strike rate

JP is a far better bat than most on here
One thing the stats do show is that Tahir is the best spinner of the lot
