There I was, minding my own business and dreaming of better days, when all of a sudden there He was, wherever I turned my gaze: Steven Finn.He’d quietly and unobtrusively been worming his way into my subconscious for a while, as county cricketers tend to, but after his Test debut against Bangladesh all hell broke loose and he’s already being compared to the greatest bowling legends ever to have played the game.More Facebook users have "Liked Him" on his official Cricinfo page than Graeme Swann, the world’s top Test spinner.
