Is it the wrong 'un? Who knows? The leg break? Maybe! The 'straight oner'? Most likely! I have 11 different variations by name and 2 by result!

Post by: mattcoll12491 on January 24, 2013, 06:44:12 PM: I dabbled in a bit of SLC when I was young, but then decided I was rubbish and I could swing it both ways... But I'm thinking of going back to it at indoor nets and see how the ball comes out

Post by: uknsaunders on January 28, 2013, 11:52:23 PM: I was given a tip tonight about getting more flight/less pace on the ball. When you bowl, throw your right arm up high as you bring it over in the action. Seemed to help even me flight a few without slowing my action.
