Having spent 5 years learning his trade in County Cricket, Monty
Panesar established himself with England in 2006, quickly becoming
a national hero, with his trademark black turban, wide eyes and
eager fielding. Monty was a different type of spinner to those
which had gone before, here was someone who was not afraid to 'give
it some air' and attack batsmen. For a time, he was considered the
saviour of English spin bowling. His commitment and enthusiasm for
the sport made him stand out. His performances encouraged others to
hone their skills to the extent that others emerged and took his
place. The England team saw glimpses of him after that, most
notably when Graeme Swann and Monty combined in Mumbai in November
2012, dubbed the "dust devils" as they returned joint figures of 19
for 323, in one of the greatest England spin double acts in
history, only the fourth occasion that England spinners had
combined to take 19 wickets or more wickets in a Test and the first
time for 54 years. As Monty's career declined however, so did his
health. He struggled with a tiresome shoulder injury before
struggling with mental health issues.
