Shane Warne

If there was ever a wrist spinner who was to feature in a fan's fantasy team, it has to be Shane Warne. The leggie from Australia was a complete package and often relied on movement in the air and purchase off the wicket for a majority of his wickets.

The first cricketer to reach 700 test wickets, Shane Warne's consistency earned him a constant spot in the Australian test and ODI side. Such was the importance of Warne to that side that he closed the door on any other leg spinner's entrance into the squad.

In his glorious career, Warne picked 708 wickets from just 145 games and averaged just above 25. Given his expertise in leg-spin, it's safe to say that he was quite the Bradman of wrist spin!
