The effect of spin in swing bowling in cricket: model trajectories for spin alone

Physica Scripta, 2015
In ‘swing’ bowling, as employed by fast and fast-medium bowlers in cricket, back-spin along the line of the seam is normally applied in order to keep the seam vertical and to provide stability against ‘wobble’ of the seam. Whilst spin is normally thought of as primarily being the slow bowlerʼs domain, the spin applied by the swing bowler has the side ...

Exploration evoked by the environment is balanced by the need to perform in cricket spin bowling.

Psychology of Sport and Exercise, 2021
Abstract In the theory of ecological dynamics, adaptive responses emerge through exploration when an individual interacts with their environment. This study investigates how when competing, the environment guides perceptual-motor exploration that is balanced by the need to meet performance requirements.

The relationship between segmental kinematics and ball spin in Type-2 cricket spin bowling

Journal of Sports Sciences, 2017
The techniques of spin bowling in cricket have been largely formulated from the collective intuitions of past players. A standard model of bowling technique has been generally prescribed for both off-spin and leg-spin bowlers, but there has been no biomechanics research to validate this approach. This study measured 20 Type-2 off-spin and 15 Type-2 leg-

Illegal bowling actions contribute to performance in cricket finger‐spin bowlers

Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 2018
With advances in technology, scientists are now able to more accurately measure elbow displacement changes during the cricket bowling action. This has led to the realization that the majority of bowlers undergo some degree of elbow extension during the forward swing phase of bowling.

Spin-bowling in cricket re-visited: model trajectories for various spin-vector angles

Physica Scripta, 2016
In this paper we investigate, via the calculation of model trajectories appropriate to slow bowling in cricket, the effects on the flight path of the ball before pitching due to changes in the angle of the spin-vector. This was accomplished by allowing the spin-vector to vary in three ways.

Bowling machine delivers new spin on cricket

Physics World, 2006
When England's cricketers take on Australia in the Ashes later this month, they can expect to face a variety of hostile bowling, from the tricky spin of Shane Warne to the speed and accuracy of Glenn McGrath. To succeed against such deliveries requires huge amounts of practice, which is why a bowling machine developed by researchers at Loughborough ...

Pelvic and trunk mechanics and injury in cricket: A spin bowling case study

International Journal of Sports Science & Coaching, 2016
An international cricket spin bowler was experiencing asymmetrical low back pain while bowling his off-break delivery. The aim of this study was to identify technical discrepancies between the bowler’s off-break delivery and his other variations, which did not cause low back pain.

The Relationship of Selected Anthropometric and Biomechanical Variables with the Performance of Players in Off Spin Bowling

International Journal of Scientific Research, 2012
Introduction A sport is as old as the human society and it has achieved a universal following in the modern times. It now enjoys popularity, which out strips any others form of social activity. It has become an integral part of the educational process; millions of fans follow different sport.

The influence of upper-body mechanics, anthropometry and isokinetic strength on performance in wrist-spin cricket bowling

Journal of Sports Sciences, 2019
Delivering a cricket ball with a wrist-spin (WS) bowling technique is considered one of the game's most difficult skills. Limited biomechanical information exists for WS bowlers across skill levels. The purpose of this study was to compare biomechanical, isokinetic strength and anthropometric measures between elite (12) and pathway bowlers (eight ...

Identification of key performance parameters during off-spin bowling with a smart cricket ball

Sports Technology, 2011
A smart cricket ball, instrumented with three high-speed MEMS gyroscopes, was used to measure performance parameters during off-spin bowling. The average spin rate and finger torque generated by the bowler were 22.7 rps and 0.28 N·m, respectively. The arm motion could be clearly identified on the spin-axis vector diagram. The spin-axis vector described
