A basic, basic run down is its to do with seam angle (which way its pointing slightly), your bowling action and conditions. No doubt there is an article on wikipedia]]> Thu, 21 Jun 2007 07:59:57 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3894&PID=141274#141274 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3894&PID=141096#141096 Author: spin wizard

The new ball is hard and shiiny so it comes on at a very good pace that a fast bowler enjoys to shake up the batters. I really don't know what makes the new ball swing as I am not into this science c**p with it but keeping a straight seam can make it swing in the air.]]> Wed, 20 Jun 2007 01:48:02 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3894&PID=141096#141096 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3894&PID=141095#141095 Author: vardhans83

Hi I always wondered...read that swing is usally generated when the ball has different weights on both sides i.e. keeping one side shiny and one side rough. But, i always wondered what makes a NEW BALL swing? How should a new ball used and why is it so crucial that a pace bowler bowls with the new ball? Please help me understand this....thanks]]> Wed, 20 Jun 2007 01:38:38 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3894&PID=141095#141095
