yeah I am really trying to keep my palm facing down the pitch when bowling the delivery

For the ball with a little bit of wrist, I hold the normal iverson Gleeson grip, sometimes i bowl it without wrist sometimes I do and the backspinning bowl I hold the ball with the same grip however I have the front of my hand facing leg side to a righ hander and rip my fingers Down the seem for...

What What is the difference between the Jeff ball and the carrom bowl? When I'm Practising my "carrom bowl" I have an action which has a slight wrist turn and more backspin and then I have one that I'm working with right now that I really try to turn with my fingers and not wrist.. Is that the...

Yeah I find that a lot of the time I am bowling a slightly less obvious leggie

That's it, I need to work on disusing it a bit better

I think I've bowled something very similar to this.. didn't quite land it properly though.

Awesome! I'll take a look at it... I think I was playing around with something similar to this!

Very hard to deliver that bowl over a full length pitch! Very impressed

Yes I have seen the paddock before in a few videos off yours! I can remember watching the 'off-spinning' flipper!

My old man put it in, the backyard was able to fit in a full 22 yards, however it takes up the whole backyard. I wish I could be the next Clarrie Grimmett!

I grip my slider like a normal offbreak however I don't grip the ball as tight and I don't have my fingers spread as much. When I am about to release the ball, I rotate my wrist so that the front of my hand faces the batsman just like a pacebowler bowls a cross seam delivery. From experience in...

Sure is!

Yes I've seen the Gleeson delivery and I have seen some other bowlers bowl it and yeah it does sometimes look as though a chinaman is being bowled.. might be able to work on a googly just to change it up if the batsman are picking it?

Hey guys, I had a play around in the backyard bowling the offbreak then the carrom bowl and my version of the slider, I recorded it to take a look at what the actions looked like when changing up the delivery, this was recorded with a go pro so I am not sure if you can see my hand clearly or...

Rea Really? I am not really familiar with the sub-continent bowlers as I don't get to watch them all that much only when they play Australia. I'll search it up on youtube and have a look!

Oh okay sweet, that'd seem like an effort to generate pace from that but I think it's do-able, and also I have seen Swann's flying saucer ball, it's really just a slight change of the arm position isn't it? Very good ball in my opinion if you are able to pull it off.

Thanks! Seems very interesting and I'll have to look into them a bit more. Would this be a flicking motion to bowl the ball?

/ Thank you! Really good feed back from you. With the back spin, is it just rolling your fingers down the ball rather then over the ball?

I have turned to the full toss in desperate times to get a wicket... usually does the job aswell haha

I have been on and off with this forum for a while now, never really posted much on it other then the odd tips and tricks thread. It is about time I get back into this and help out these off spinners on here! Any wrist spinners with any thoughts that could be relevant on here please feel free...
