How To Bowl Offspin

Sport : Cricket

Most cricket teams have an offspinner in their ranks, and therefore if you can become a good offspinner then you will be invaluable to your team.

There are too major benefits to an offspinner - they add variety to an attack and are another wicket taking prospect.

And secondly, due to the motion, they can bowl for longer spells to give the quick bowlers a breather and enable them to really charge in and give it their all when it is their turn to bowl their overs.

An offspin delivery will spin from off to leg, and you have a big gap between the first and second finger.

Try to really roll and rip the ball as you deliver for maximum spin. When you learn to bowl the ball, and first bowl it, try to give it as much spin as you can and use a strong arm action.

Don't get lazy and just gently roll it through your fingers - for best effect really aim to spin the ball rather than just pitch it.
