Off-spin is the most popular
method of spin in cricket.
An off-break delivery turns from the off
side to the leg side when bowled at a right-handed batsman.
The spin is generated by the first and
second fingers of the right hand.
The more revolutions you
can put on the ball, the better chance you have of getting more turn when the
ball pitches.
A left-arm spin delivery turns from the leg side to the
off when bowled at a right-handed batsman.
It's bowled in
the same way as a right-arm off spinner would deliver a normal off break.
But
because it's bowled with the left hand, the ball is released in the opposite
direction, meaning it will turn away from the bat.
Most
left-arm spinners bowl around the wicket, aiming to drift the ball towards the
bat before turning it away.
STEP 1
The middle joints
of the index and middle fingers are well spread across the seam. The ball rests
against the third finger but the thumb has little involvement.
STEP
2
Turning the wrist
and the index finger generate the spin on the ball, turning the ball in a
clockwise direction.
Use your first
two fingers to give the ball a good "rip" at the point of delivery.
