The Basics of Finger Spin - Part 2: The Bowling Action
Spinners play a key role in all teams, at all levels, across all format, with many of the most successful bowlers of all time being spinners.

Debunking Cricket Coaching Myths: The Grip

By improving our cricket fitness we'll be able to take diving catches, make athletic stops, throw the ball h...

Four Things the World's Fastest Bowlers Have in Common
Просмотров 2,6 тыс.4 года назад
Much like their batting counterparts, the world's best fast bowlers have really varied techniques. From the awkward yet effective Jasprit Bumrah, the rhythmical Mitchell Starc, to the unorthodox but deadly Lasith Malinga, there are a lot of differences. But these guys do have things in common, so in this video we'll look at four technical factors that when combined make up the fundamentals of m...

    I believe that the holy grail of finger spin bowling is imparting top spin. And i don’t think you can impart top spin if your wrist is cocked or the fingers are too tight around the ball (i struggle with this myself). The way i like to think about this is, i like to feel that my triceps are rotating if my wrist is cocked my forearms get too tight and i can’t go up the back of the ball. Have seen a lot of tennis coaches say this about hitting with top spin too. You can’t impart top spin on the ball in tennis if your wrist is locked or your grip is too tight

    • @InFormCricket
      @InFormCricket 8 месяцев назад

      A lot of it is trial and error, experimenting, trying different wrists positions, getting a feeling for different angles of your wrist. Having the body awareness of knowing the angle of your wrist is on release can help you put different spin on the ball. Have fun playing around with it. Maybe try to use a two coloured ball to check the spin on the ball and which way the seam is pointing mid air.

    • @InFormCricket
      @InFormCricket 11 месяцев назад

      Thanks for the comment @melvinpaul85, and thank you for watching the video! I’m working on a video about line and length, but generally you want to bounce the ball 4 metres away from the stumps, this is deemed a good length where the batter can’t smother the spin on the front foot from the crease, and the ball can threaten the stumps if the batter goes on the back foot. Hope this helps

      The grip is explained in the video - but you need to spin the ball off your index finger, so play around with holding the ball, and see how wide you can get your index finger and middle finger on the seam of the ball.

    When we on front foot landing.. How we release the balls back hips behind the front leg or both facing towards batter?

    • @InFormCricket
      @InFormCricket Год назад

      When your front foot lands we want our hips to be pointing 45 degrees from the batter. So the hips are not pointing down the wicket (that’s on release), or 90 degrees from the batter (ie belly button pointing towards extra cover/mid wicket). Hope this helps

    Just chanced upon this gem. Having got back into cricket after a decade, all my off spinners come out as undercutters "the flying saucer". When you said about seamer wrist cocking position it all made sense. Hopefully I can relearn off spin. Im getting good rpm, its just the seam angle is all wrong.
