My Bowling
« on: October 28, 2009, 05:11:53 PM »

Ok right, long story so i kinda bowl weird well i said weird let me explain.

I bowl legspin well i think it is, its out of the back of my hand standard leg spin action. but mine pitch on off and hit leg. so does that mean my stock ball is off spin, or leg spin googly, hmmm

No its the fact its coming out the back of your hand, leg spinners come out the side.

Top spin comes out the side, leg spin comes out of the front of the hand. Theres some videos of warnes on youtube somehwere.

Whoops my mistake your right raymond...
Leg break - Otherwise known as the leg-spinner, this is the stock delivery of the leg spinner. The term leg break is easily explained - the ball spins away from the leg side and thus ‘breaks’ away from the leg. Problematic because the ball moves away from the body of the right-handed batsman (from leg-side to off-side), the line and length can also be varied by the spinner to apply extra pressure and utilise any assistance from the pitch. Delivered by gripping the ball across the seam and released from the front of the hand, with the fingers offering some extra spin

So make it so the ball is being held in the thumb and index more, so more to the front, if you understand
