Harris' figures are extremely respectable for a finger spinner who almost invariably plies his trade on unhelpful wickets. His capacity to exploit more helpful conditions can be doubted, and you'd take Panesar over Harris every time for a tour of India, but Harris deserves more respect than he's typically given for what he offers the SA side at present.
