Spin Bowling with Daniel Vettori
Spin Bowling with Daniel Vettori
Key points:
Spin bowling is when you rotate ball so that when it hits the pitch it will change direction,, making it difficult for the batsmen.
You start by gripping the ball firmly with your fingers spread widely across the seam
Run in with your eyes level and look a where you want to land the ball
Bowl the ball by turning your wrist vigorously to spin it hard
For leg spin twist your wrist anticlockwise and flick your third finger over the seam
With a bit of practice you’ll be an expert in no time.
