Rare bowling combinations

[Cthublhu]

Yes, Australia have played two leg spinners in the same side.

The most notable time was during the early 1930s, when our attack was led by two leg-spinners (Bill O'Reilly and Clarrie Grimmett).

I know that wasn't the question asked but anyway...

...Warne and MacGill played a few tests together as well.

Australia has had a few wrist spinning combinations. I think Frank Ward and Fleetwood-Smith played a couple of tests together with O'Reilly. Benaud and Kline in the 50s and 60s, Jenner and O'Keefe in the 70s and McIntyre with Warne and Hogg in the mid 90s. I'm probably forgetting a couple of others as well. Can't remember if McCool or Ring played together or with Benaud in the 40s and 50s.

Jim Higgs played with Peter Sleep.
Higgs also played with Bob Simpson who was a more than useful spinner but
couldn't be classified as a front liner.

Would Mushtaq Ahmed and Abdul Qadir have ever played together, toward the start of the former and end of the latter's career?

Paul Strang and Adam Huckle would've played together for the Zimbos too, surely?

I wonder how many times Clarke and Mussey have bowled in tandem in their respective test careers.
