Hi everyone.

I am 14 and play for the national level at my age group. Over the past few months I worked on a new type of ball, which when bowled correctly, can do 4 different things. Have topsin, backspin, legspin or offspin on it. It is called HIPPY SPIN.

The ball's held between the biggest finger and the pinky (with the ball resting on the ring finger). Clench your fist then move up the 2 fingers stated above, it will become more clear then! I don't know how it gets the different spin on it, it just does! If anyone could tell me just post it on the site.

If anyone wants help with bowling spin, just send me a message.

Thanks.

Well mate, from what you have posted there, I am sure its the slider. Cause you said clench the fist which I guess means like to cock it back. Then you said move up the 2 fingers stated which means to flick the wrist up in the air so the ball comes out from the front of the hands (palm to batsman and back of the hands to your face) or under the palm.

And to be even more positive its the slider, the slider bounce extra when bowled a little short. The slider also has backspin on it which makes it skid on at times. It comes out as a leggy when the wrist faces more to slips are it is not properly released. It may gain offspin when released properly as shane warne own does to a left hander mainly because of the wrist position to leg slip.

Fishcake14, can you do a slider?

In troubled times, being philosophical helps a great deal, it helps you to remain sane and not do any further damage.

Hi, mate. I bowl the same kind of spin as you!! But it only does topspin, backspin and legspin. I have no idea how you get it to go offspin.
