    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    There was a couple of people on here years ago that were coaches and more into bio-mechanics and they worked with me and my action and they were advocates of not trying to replicate Warne. I've read and seen a number of articles over the years saying the same, Warne was unique and there's little...

    MacGill says to drive the knee forwards, I think if you focus on driving the knee forwards, the push might happen without even having to focus on it. There used to be a bloke on here years ago "Macca" from Manly, Sydney he would always say to try and kick your butt during FFC phase and avoid the...

    What point do you come on and bowl - what's your proper name on the score card?

    Here that's 4 in the morning! I'm watching a game in WA already, is yours short format hence the later start?

    I like Rehan Ahmed even more after reading this quote " Golf, in his words, is a “shocking sport”.

    Fleetwood, I have to keep remembering that you're primarily bowling off-breaks to a right-hander. So, my observations with that scenario are... I went for 2-3 years only able to bowl Wrong-uns and found that once the batters had recognised that as being the case, the threat was for the most part...

    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    Hello Fleetwood. You've said - " All I've been doing is using an orthodox 2-up 2-down grip , and at delivery pulling the two "up " fingers straight down the back of the ball, like a seamer would, except with the arm whipping across the body to leg, this generally seems to produce what is...

    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    Yeah, so that's a Big-Leg Break gone wrong, sometimes they'll turn other times they skid on - which is what Warne says, I've never heard him say or allude to the fact that he has any control over it, but he knows that the batsman is seeing the side-spin and is expecting it to turn and then it...

    There used to be a few videos that were post Warne era were he spoke about and explained "Sliders". All Leg-Breaks that he got wrong - cold hands, too loose/too tight. Every time, the commentators would say 'Oh yes he's got him with the slider' and Warne's commentating over the top explaining...

    Have a look at this 1 minute 50 seconds in. Listen to what Healey says about Warne's deliveries. Have a count up and then make a note of the one that's missing, then listen to the bit where they then laugh about the BS deliveries. What's you're analysis of the BS deliveries - the ones he never...

    Fleetwood, I'm interested in this Slider you're working with. Can you elaborate? Do you have Top-Spinner? Did you have this many variations 20 years ago? Good to hear you're getting back into it, you're not in my County by any chance - Essex?

    "By the time the season re-starts back again in a month". Uh why does the season stop?

    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    Just watched the whole lot and drew a rough approximation of your lengths you bowled. You need to work on avoiding the shorter balls, which I'm sure you're more than aware of, its those that go for 4's and the six, I think for the most part your fielders backed up and you had a bloke in the deep...

    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    I find most of the logic that is supposed to apply on turf wickets doesn't actually play out as you'd expect. It only turns like Shane Warne when the pitch is a council pitch that replicates a day 3,4 or 5 wicket with dirty great holes all over it. Other than that it's anyone's guess as to what...
