I reckon it might have to do with the angle finger spinners bowl from compared to wrist spinners. The drift an offspinner gets is in the same direction that the body rotates, which means the drfit will probably be complimented by this angle and thus it looks like more drift is being achieved. On...
Yes I'm certainly the slider type, however seeing as I managed to get it right once I can't see why I can't repeat it, I simply want it as a very occasional change-up (maybe once per 5-6 overs).
I can't seem to get it, I have a leg-break, top-spinner, slider and I'm very slowly developing a flipper. However I can't seem to learn the googly. Once I got it right, and it spun a bit, but since then I haven't done it, I can't seem to turn my wrist properly or get my alignment right, even if...
Hey guys, just bowled about 5 overs in the nets today, no shoulder pain, so I'm right to go. My preparation for the Aussie season can begin. I'm hoping to get my bowling good enough for matches and be able to support it with some middle-lower order batting depending on what division I end up in.
Drift is very mysterious, although seam angle plays a role, I find the slider (seam angle about 100 degrees) drifts quite a lot with consistency, I have no idea why.
I think the reason Warne got more drift than McGill was because Warne put more overspin on the ball, while McGill has after turn...
I like SLA's idea, get a decent slider going, the drift makes the batsman think it's a legbreak, then it doesn't turn, seen Warne/McGill get bowled/LBW like that loads of times
Hi guys, I'm new to legspin (its been winter in Australia for a few months and I began straight after summer) but now I've done something to my shoulder. I changed my action recently and I think my arm speed increased a lot which wrecked my shoulder, and now bowling with slower arm speed still...
