    The tall right-arm stylish off-spinner named Graeme Swann mostly likes to bowl with glasses on. No doubt he’s one of the best off-spinner ever produced by the English cricket team. Coming through the proper grass-root cricket, Swann started playing youth cricket for the England cricket team. Extremely consistent with the line and length and handly while coming down the order makes him a proper asset for any time. Swann made his first-class debut way back in 1998, though he made his ODI debut in 2000 it took him 10 years to play red-ball cricket.

    Swann made his ODI debut in 2000 against South Africa while made his Test and T20I debut in 2008. He was always in competition with fellow off-spinner Monty peanser and that’s the reason he was in and out of form the team was due to inconsistent performances. He came into the limelight in 2009 when he become the only English spinner who took 50 wickets in a calendar year. He was part of the English squad when they won ICC World T20 2010 which held in West Indies.
