the_cricketzone1 A leg break is bowled by holding the cricket ball in the palm of the hand with the seam running across under all the fingers. As the ball is released, the wrist is rotated to the left and the ball flicked by the ring finger, giving the ball an anti-clockwise spin as seen from behind. To grip the ball for a leg-spinning delivery, the ball is placed into the palm with the seam parallel to the palm. The first two fingers then spread and grip the ball, and the third and fourth fingers close together and rest against the side of the ball. The first bend of the third finger should grasp the seam. The thumb resting against the side is up to the bowler but should impart no pressure. When the ball is bowled, the third finger will apply most of the spin. The wrist is cocked as it comes down by the hip, and the wrist moves sharply from right to left as the ball is released, adding more spin. The ball is tossed up to provide flight. The batter will see the hand with the palm facing towards them when the ball is released. Leg spinners bowl mostly leg breaks, varying them by adjusting the line and length, and amount of side spin versus topspin of the deliveries. Leg spinners also typically use variations of flight by sometimes looping the ball in the air, allowing any cross-breeze and the aerodynamic effects of the spinning ball to cause the ball to dip and drift before bouncing and spinning or "turning", sharply. Leg spinners also bowl other types of delivery, which spin differently, googly.

How to play cover drive and straight drive. The cover drive is one of the gracious shots that are known for timing and elegance. For executing a shot with perfection, you need to figure out some imperative aspects that need to be done quickly. Foot Position The Foot position is the first and most imperative step that you need to understand for learning any shot in the game. For a pure cover drive, you need to have more excellent foot position- the position that allows you to have excellent and smooth bat swing. A foot position gives you the freedom to go on the backfoot for the drive or punch. A good foot position for a cover drive requires that a player must keep his/her front leg inside the line of the ball slightly. It means a player must keep her front feet a little inside and close to the line of the stumps. It will give you the excellent bat sting and space to play the ball. On the other hand, if you are not moving your feet or getting your front feet on the line of the ball, then you will gradually be blocking the path for the bat, and the ball will come straight on your pad. Front foot drive position While going for the front foot drive, you need to take a stride outside the crease and need to get your foot inside the line of the ball. The stride should be a comfortable one that can give a good balance on your feet. After getting stride forward, make your front leg knee slightly bend and move your bodys weight on the knee. This foot position will help you to strike the ball on the ground.
