WATCH: Warne explains Yasir Shah's bowling, calls him the best spinner
New Delhi: Legendary Australia leg-spinner Shane Warne believes Pakistan's leggie Yasir Shah is the best spinner of the world at the moment and not Ravichandran Ashwin.
Ashwin may be the no. 1 ranked bowler by far but Yasir's ability to take wickets all around the world makes him the best, Warne states.
"He (Yasir) is the best spinner of the world at the moment, in my opinion. His ability to bowl in all conditions (makes him special), he is a bundle of energy," said Warne to broadcaster channel 9.
“No matter what the situation is he wants the ball in his hand. He is not a huge turner of the ball; largely depends on the straight delivery that skids of the track.” Warne went on add.

Pakistan is currently taking on Australia in the first of three Tests at Brisbane and Yasir Shah is the leader of the Pakistan spin attack.
Yasir has got 116 wickets to his name in just 20 Test matches. He made headlines when he picked up a ten-for in Pakistan’s victory over England at Lord’s.
