I believe the answer is:

eddy

'spinner' is the definition.
(spinning water current)

'finally see hammond bowled by' is the wordplay.
'finally' suggests the final letters.
The final letters of 'see hammond bowled by' are 'EDDY'.

(Other definitions for eddy that I've seen before include "Whirling current" , "Little swirl in water" , "Boy" , "Man" , "giddying effect" .)
