12 is too many since pace men get hit more in T20 games.
looks at sri lanka innings pace men bowled 5 overs in a row and it cost sri lanka lots of runs.
england need about 10 overs of spin very important if they need to defend a low or par total.
Getting a poor sri lanka team out doesn't change anything especially if england are playing NZ at the same ground in the semis.
if NZ can pick 3 spinners no reason why England can't either.
