How much of a setback will the banning of the game's best spin bowlers set back spin bowling?

The uncertainty surrounding law and its execution has spawned a thousand conspiracy theories. From the very inception of the 15-degree rule, there was talk that it was put in place to accommodate one particular bowler. Lately, the crackdown is viewed in some quarters as a means of assuaging the powerful and silencing the upstarts; a means of stifling the danger posed to big teams like Australia, England and India by bowlers like Saeed Ajmal and Narine.

Such feelings run deeper than many think. West Indies chief selector and legend, Clive Lloyd, questioned Narines banning "just before an important series against India and the World Cup that follows." Lloyd, speaking from Mumbai's Brabourne Stadium, went on to say that WICB and the West Indies team management were warned by a "highly reliable source" before they arrived in India that Narine would have been called. A stunning revelation, to say the least, and one that is bound to add more fuel to the conspiracy theorists fire.

Spin Bowling Will Prosper Despite Narine And Ajmal Ban

No.I think its going to promote more finger spinners and leg breakers.Chucking is never beneficial for the game and is a disgrace.Strong actions against it would promote youngsters to relay more on finger spin and also turn to be leg breakers.Its going to be beneficial to the game.
