The above video further explains the scientific reasons behind both conventional swings and reverse swings. How to Know the Direction of the Swing Occasionally in matches when there was absolutely nothing happening, I tried this - totally against the laws of the game, of course - but nothing happened. Or, if it did, I wasn't good enough to exploit it. Can a ball be roughed up naturally? Any bowler can impart reverse swing on the ball, but the science suggests that there is an optimum speed. For the professionals, they don’t want it to be too fast or too slow.

Another important factor in swing bowling is the seam position. The position of the seam determines the point at which the airflow around the ball turns turbulent. It not only controls where the separation point is but also directly affects the sideways force on the ball.Gently bowl to your partner. If you are a right-handed bowler, you will see the ball start to swing from right to left. When this happens, it causes the air pressure on one side of the ball to be lower than the other. You will have a higher air pressure on the shiny side of the ball, and that will create a force that pushes the ball sideways. All that means that the ball will swing in the direction that the seam is facing. I defended the bowlers from any illegal interference - I felt there was no way to be certain that the scratches and striations on the ball were not the natural result of the ball landing on the abrasive Oval surface, and no one had been caught on camera doing anything suspicious. Would Australia's attempts have worked?

The correct inswing grip. The seam is tilted towards fine leg with the shiny side on the left Your Wrist Position & ReleaseAs we have already gone over, it is especially important that you set the ball correctly in your hand before you bowl. Place your first finger and your middle finger on top of the seam. And hold your thumb on the seam on the underside. The pitch: Green tops favour bowlers because there's usually moisture under the pitch, which helps the ball to swing, especially if the sun's out. Position of the Ball. Hold the ball in a conventional seamer’s grip and be aware of where you want to swing it. If you are looking for reverse inswing, the shiny side should be pointing towards the batter. For outswing bowling, point that smooth side towards the slip cordon. Release Ideally, you want the seam angle to be around 45 degrees from the ball’s motion. Inswinger vs. Outswinger Some of the bowlers who had mastered the art of swing bowling are England’s Simone Jones, India’s Zaheer Khan, Sri Lanka’s Chaminda Vaas, and Australia’s Glenn McGrath.
