Bishop's Bowling Bible - the BBB

Daniel Russell Bishop (pictured above) is Oakwood Hills leading strike bowler. Over the coming months Daniel will be sharing his and some of his friends cricketing hints and tips.

This week Daniel shares with us his tips on in-swing bowling.

A right-arm bowler bowling to a right handed batsman will move the ball into them. The index and second finger should be placed either side of the the seam. The flat side of the thumb should be placed on the
underneath of the ball. Ensure that the balls seam remains vertical and is angled towards the leg side.

Coaching Points
• The ball release should come from the middle finger before pulling down on the seam to ensure the seam stays vertical.
• For a right handed batsman ensure that the shiny side of the ball is on the off side.

Next Week: Daniel will share his thoughts on left handed batsmen.
