Top 5 wrist spinners in the world right now

#3 Yasir Shah

Yasir Shah holds the record for being the fastest to 100 Test wickets

From Swabi to Lord's, from a doping ban to becoming the world's No.1 Test bowler, Yasir Shah's rise has been spectacular. He made his First-class debut at the age of 15 and his international debut followed nine years later. However, he was unable to cement his place in the side.

Yasir continued to produce solid performances in the Pakistani domestic circuit and the suspension of Saeed Ajmal due to a suspect action meant the leg-spinner was drafted again into the national side.

After a slow start to his renewed international career, Yasir began his meteoric rise in the longer format. He became the first Pakistani to hold the top bowling spot in the Test rankings since Mushtaq Ahmed two decades ago.

Yasir also broke Australian spinner Clarie Grimmet's 83-year-old record when he became the fastest spinner in the history of Test cricket to reach 150 wickets. He has also been hailed the best leg-spinner since Shane Warne. Despite his excellent record in the longer format, Yasir's limited overs career is yet to take off. With only 18 ODI wickets and no T20 wicket to his name, he hasn't made his mark in the limited overs formats yet.

However, there is no doubt that he is one of the best wrist spinners in the world right now.
