A new Type of Spin

I said in another thread...and i dont mean to have a go...But from what i can read on the forum, Fishcake seems more interested in coming up with unspetacular names for every variation in flight and bounce than focussing on the simple art of off-spin.

If i named all my "variations" i would have 100s of them.

"Oh look that ball kept low abit, i'll call it "the crawler" and another ball bounced abit more so i'll call that "the destructacator" for it's wicket taking traits.

perhaps im being harsh

Eventually batsmen will be able to pick you, so if you have a''different'' ball which they have never seen before then they will struggle and probably lose their wicket. Like Murali's new backspinner.

Don't get me wrong, bowlers have their variations. Perhaps the only difference between say mine and yours is that you name them? Having read my own post i feel i gave the impression that it really grieves me that you have all these variations and various names for them.

Thats not true, it's just the impression i get from reading a few posts on a forum which certainly cannot give me an idea of your bowling. Chances are that you are a very good bowler and can bowl these variations effectively. In which case i should shut up

I have a few variations i use frequently in the nets now but only a few i would use in a match situation at this currently time.

1. Off Break
2. Drifting Arm Ball
3. Quicker Ball
4. Full Flight, considerably slower.

These aren't my particular variations, just traditional Off Spin deliveries which i am trying to learn. I have tried gripping the ball in strange ways and doing all sorts of things in a search for something different but as of yet, i haven't found anything greatly exciting like Fishcake's "hippy spin" so he calls it.

so u bowl leg spin basically. Except you prefer googlies to ur normal leg break

Wierd

Crazy....

I've seen harbajan's doosra and it more straightens than moves away drastically but still very useful.

I think bend should be allowed for the doosra. Why not allow innovations like this?

The whole bendy arm thing was to prevent fast bowlers from gaining extra speed. On in this recent decade has it been more applied to spinners.

Thanks god none of you are in the ICC body !!
