If any one in this forum would like some help with bowling wrist and/or finger spin i am more then happy to help out. I can help u bowl leg breaks, wrong uns, top spinners, off breaks and arm balls. I am still working on the flipper and slider, i gave up on the doosra - impossible (nearly) to bowl it without chucking it. |

I am a fast bowler but I also try and bowl off-spin. I can do the googly very well and I am pretty good at off-spin. But I just want to know how I can spin the ball even more when doing off-spin. I am a left-handed bowler. ------------- Regulation without integration leads to suicide. |

u r left arm orthodox ayy. Make sure u cock your wrist in the correct position, not too much not too little. Also make sure you full rotate ur fingers and wrist at the point of delivery, if u r holding the ball correctly and at the correct seam postion this will help. ------------- |

Posted By: MiNiWaRnEy
Date Posted: 23 December 2005 at 3:55am
|
Arm balls are sort of an out swinger, they go straight, so instead of spinning in to a right hander it goes straight on. Warne doesnt bowl off spin at all, a wrong-un' is not an off break, it is bowled with a leg spin action and with a leg spin grip, but u rotate your wrist in an anti-clockwise fashion ------------- |

Okay an offies toppie is a delivery which is bowled with the same grip but u turn your wrist to face the seam up to the batsman. The ball will go straight.
Leggies toppie is bowled with the same leg spin grip but ur habd ends up facing at the batsmen wen u finish, ball will go straight. PRATCISE BOIS!!!!!! ------------- |

With the flipper you baaically want tou get your thumb and your 2nd finger and flick the ball, release from the front of your hand, and it hould skid on straight. In all seriousness it is a crap ball and doesnt really do anything, but if you can hit it in the right spot like warney can it is dangerous. very hard to bowl! ------------- |

Ok, you have to understand that doing the doosra for me is easier because I am a left handed off-spinner. So my action is the exact samething as a right handed leg-spinner. Do you know what I mean.
For the googly, you have to turn your wrist like you're turning a door knob right? And at the end of your action the back of the hand is suppose to be facing the batsman. But since I am left-handed, my off-spin action is different than the right-handed off-spinners action. My off-spinner action is the same as a right handed leg-spinners action. My action is like this except I'm left-handed so when I turn it the other way, its a doosra. I don't think anyone understands what I'm trying to say.  ------------- Regulation without integration leads to suicide. |

NOPE, you are wrong if you are bowling like a leg spinner then you are a Slow left arm Chinaman Wrist Spinner, you will spin the ball in the same direction as a right arm off spinner, but you are bowling the left armers version of a leg spin, you aree not bowling the doosra, you are bowling the googly. ------------- |

OK mate, if you are a right arm off spin bowler like Harbajan Singh you will spin the ball into a right handed batsmen, When the off spinner bowls the doosra the balls spins in the opposite direction, away from the batsman. ------------- |

Saqlain has a tessra. Meaning the thord one, not many people really know about it because it is still very new, but I believe it is a delivery which once it hits the pitch the speed goes up or something of that sorts. It will be interesting to see if our man Saqlain Mushtaq gets another go. He is the guy that 1st made the doosra basically, so he has quite a big repetoire of balls, particularly for an offie. He revolutionised off spin, more then MUrali even. ------------- |

hi guys i saw this topic through google and i wouldnt mind giving my own tips on offspin, i am a right handed offspinner, i have 5 deliveries, some of my own, if anyone is interested i can give you tips on, the offbreak, the arm ball and the topspinner. If you want to find out about my other two "made up" bowls then prepared to get complicated. If you are willing to listen i will explain. I could also do with help making up two names for my deliveiries as well. I have the utmost respect for you miniwarney as i know how hard it is to develop and practise so many types of spin.
Let me know if you want tips

Well, presumably name wise you'd carry on the trend: doosra, tessra, ......... (I don't know what language it is so can't carry it on, but apparently Saqlain Mushtaq has a tesra, a third variation.) ------------- |

i cant find a lanuage translator and there are about 10 different languages over there anyway one is a fingerspin doosra and the other is a topspin offspinner. |

doosra means 'the other one' but I've no idea what tesra means. Perhaps you can put 'sra' after your initials/first name/last name or something if you want to invent a new name for a delivery! ------------- |

lol, i think teesra means third one and doosra means other or second. i dont think it would sound too good if the commentator said, oh thats a good andrewsra.

The arm ball is a very simple delivery to bowl, the toppie requires a little practice to gte the control and the dooosra is very hard to bowl without chucking it, hard to control. I am a Right-Arm off Break bowler and I can bowl a few different kinds of offies, the arm ball, the top spinner and I have invented a few.

| I have tried to invent a ball, with help from a lad called charlie mackenzie, a slider-leggie. Hes a batsmen who bowls leg spin, and im a leggie. Its where you bowl a slider (back spinner) with the back of your hand facing the batsmen. Its very hard to pick, it speeds up and leggies, as long as you have the seam upright |

cricketluva: my topspinner is slightly unusual as well as it is released out of the back of the hand with a flick, it works so well when it gets right, you can feel if its right when you release. my 2 made up deliveries consist of no.1, a back of the hand offbreak, with the batsmen predicting a toppy or doosra, it hasd the same action as the toppy, released out of the back of the hand but also is released from a near side on angle devloping offspin. I have a fingerspin doosra which i make out as an offbreak as i keep an offspin grip and then as i swing my arm over i move the ball between my thumb and the side of my middle finger, when i release, my thumb goes down and my middle inger goes up creating leg spin. the seam position is VITAL. give it a go I forgot to tell you about my other ball, which is out of the back of the hand, though the seam position is different meaning it can jump up at the batsmen. Cricketluva, please tell me about your different deliveries and explain, i would love to have even more deliveries in my armoury

The leg spinner's prize weapon - bowled properly, a googly is almost undetectable. A googly, or "wrong'un", is a delivery which looks like a normal leg spinner but actually turns towards the batsmen, like an off break, rather than away from the bat.
Unlike a normal leg break, a googly is delivered out of the back of the hand, with the wrist 180 degrees to the ground.
STEP ONE
Hold the ball as if you're about to bowl a normal leg break. The top joints of the index and middle fingers should be across the seam, with the ball resting between a bent third finger and the thumb.
STEP TWO
At the point of release, the palm of your hand should be open upwards, towards the sky, with the back of your hand facing the batsman. Your wrist should be 180 degrees to the ground, while the seam of the ball should point towards fine leg. Again, it should be your third finger which does most of the work, turning the ball anti-clockwise on release. You'll probably find it goes horribly wrong the first few times you give the googly a try, but don't give up. As the old saying goes, practice makes perfect. Use a tennis ball to help improve the flexibility of your wrist.

The googly is with the same grip as an leggie, but you turn your wrist in an anti clockwise fashion and your hand will end up facing teh batsmen, the ball will turn from off to leg, not hard to bowl, if you have a quickish action it is extremly hard to pick. Beau Casson is like that and he bowler Mark Waugh with a wrong-un', Mark couldn't pick it evebn though he is a wonderful player of spin. ------------- See you later Gilly! Thanks for the memories! |

done some reasearch on the doosra: In Hindi and Urdu, doosra means "second" or "other". Put simply, the it is the off-spinner's version of the googly. Over the past five years, the world's top off spinners have developed the doosra to baffle batsmen. It looks very similar to a normal off-break, but rather than spin towards the bat, it goes the other way like a leg break. The doosra is bowled from the back of the hand with a lot of top spin, but the wrist still moves in a clockwise direction. It is a very difficult skill to master so you'll need plenty of practice if you want to learn how to do it. However, its validity has been called into question because of the number of off-spinners who have been reported to the International Cricket Council for suspect actions bowling the doosra. Sri Lanka's Muttiah Muralitharan, India's Harbhajan Singh and Pakistan's Shoaib Malik have all had to have their actions cleared by the ICC's Human Movement Specialist panel. Sceptics claim the doosra cannot be bowled with a legitimate bowling action because it is physically impossible to do with a straight arm.
just to let you know, i have done research on murali, he is an abnormal human. He has a double jointed wrist ( i have that) which is fairly uncommon but also has an extremely rare double jointed elbow(i dont have that!) and therefore is unable to fully straighten his arm even if he tries. He can get very close but is still unable. EDIT: results Depending on the direction of viewing, his arm may be seen as straight or bent. |

Posted By: Warne in making
Date Posted: 19 January 2006 at 8:07pm
| Googly you need to know the action and then its all about practice. Advanced stuff, relese it a fraction earlier as it comes out of the back of the hand giving it a higher jajectory (i dont know how to spell it) With the slider have a leg spinners grip but put back spin on it. Its an offies topspinners grip but with the back spin. Master these and then you can try the flipper, but dont even thing about it untill you can do these well. |

| Your hold it like an offies toppie but put back spin on it. It makes it look like a leg break but it skids on with the backspin |
