Warne, widely hailed by the cricketing fraternity as the best spinner of all time, turned 50 on Friday. The Aussie spin maestro is the second highest wicket taker in Test cricket with a whopping 708 scalps in just 145 Test matches. Kuldeep who has been India's front-line spinner in the limited overs format has shown his pedigree in the longer format of the game too. After making headwinds on the limited overs arena by becoming the second  fastest Indian to reach the 50-ODI wicket milestone, Yadav has bagged 24 wickets in just Test for India, donning the whites. The left arm tweaker is part of India’s test squad that will take on South Africa next month.
