Wrist Spin Bowling Tips

There are two types of spin bowlers. One - Wrist Spinner and Two. Finger Spinner. There are a lot of tricks to be a successful bowler. Now I am describing with you what you need to be a good wrist spinners.

Setting a One day fielding

One-day cricket is all about scoring quickly - it's the fielding side's job to keep the runs down and pick up wickets.

Unlike Test cricket, the fielders are spread out to save the runs.

In July 2005, the International Cricket Council (ICC) announced changes to the way one-day cricket is played.

Before that time, for the first 15 overs, nine fielders, including the bowler and the wicket-keeper, had to be inside a 30-yard (27.5m) circle when the ball was bowled.

The circle was marked out by markers five yards (4.5m) apart, so the fielders - and umpires - knew where to stand.

Setting a Off-side fielding

If your team has a bowler who can bowl a tight line and length just outside off stump, then it's possible to set an off-side field to reflect this.

Setting a defensive field

A defensive field is often used if a team is conceding too many runs or if a bowler is struggling to bowl a regular line and length.

This field will limit the batsmen's run-scoring opportunities.

Setting a leg-side fielding

Bowling to a leg-side field is usually seen as a defensive move.

It can be used to stop the flow of runs, particularly against a batsman who's especially strong through the off-side.

How to set fielding

A fielding captain's job is to get the opposition out for as few runs as possible.

To do this, they need to set fields which will help to take wickets and stop the flow of runs.

Unfortunately these two things don't go hand-in-hand, so a captain must either sacrifice runs to get wickets or risk taking fewer wickets to stop runs.
