5 best players of spin from Australia

#2 Allan Border

He is not only one of the most influential captains in Australian cricket's modern history but one of its greatest modern batsman and Allan Border was also one of his country's greatest players against spin bowling.

He was someone who rarely ever played a loose shot once he was set and against spin bowling, he possessed the technique and skill to bat for long without any alarms.

Among all the Australian batsmen, who have played in the sub-continent, Border remains one of the best and an average of 54.51 in India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka is ample proof of his immense prowess as a batsman of high-quality spin bowling.

In addition to that, he made 6 centuries and 8 half-centuries during the course of 20 Test matches in those three countries. One of his most memorable performances was possibly the tour of India in 1986-87 when he completely mastered India's spinners to score 230 runs in 3 Tests, at an average of 81.66.
