Top 5 Indian Off Spinners of all time

Second Test - South Africa v India: Day Two
Bhajji was India's top off-spinner for a long time

#3 Ravichandran Ashwin

Modern day giant
Ashwin became the fastest bowler to reach the 250 and 300-wicket marks

Cerebral and tall, Ravichandran Ashwin is every bit the modern off-spinner who has to shuttle between three different formats of the game.

Still very much at his peak, Ashwin has generated ridiculous numbers in the longest format of the game. He became the fastest bowler in the world to reach the 250 and 300 wicket mark.

Thoughtful and inventive, Ashwin has complete mastery over his flight and loop, a potent stock ball, a well-concealed arm ball. a top spinner and the carrom ball.

His methods have brought him incredible success on the subcontinental pitches. The future tours of Australia, England and New Zealand will have a huge impact on how posterity would judge him.

He has 263 wickets at an average of 22.75 in 42 tests on Asian soil. Ashwin is set to rewrite the record books if he continues his golden run for a few more years.
