what  is under arm bowling in cricket?
102541
There was no such rule restricting the underarm bowling earlier..But the one to exploit the absence of such a rule was Greg Chappell. When he captained Australia he asked his brother Trevor Chappell to do underarm bowling in the last over that did the trick..\nThat was when such a matter was considered and was banned..

Cricket is played between two teams of 11 players. \nThe fielding team have all 11 players on the pitch at the same time. \n\nNine members of the fielding team can be positioned around the pitch at the discretion of the captain, while one serves as the wicketkeeper and the other is the bowler. \n\nThe bowler delivers the ball, overarm, with the aim being to get the batsmen out. Two batsmen bat at any one time, standing at opposite ends of the pitch. \n\nThe batsman facing the bowler is described as being ‘on strike’. One run is scored each time the batsmen cross and reach the crease at the opposite end from which they started. \n\nAlthough all 11 players have the opportunity to bat, the team are deemed to be ‘all out’ when ten wickets have fallen as the ‘not out’ batsman is left without a team-mate at the other end of the wicket. \n\nA team does not have to be all out for an innings to close. \n\nIf a captain feels that his team has scored enough runs then he can bring the innings to a close by what is called a declaration. \n\nIT’S A FACT: Teams also have a 12th man who acts as a substitute fielder if one of the first XI are injured. The 12th man is not allowed to bat or bowl though.

Left on Base...you idiots...if you don't know the answer, don't try and answer with things like:\n"basically a gentle underhanded toss."\n"A really slow high arc throw"\n"The act of propelling something (as a ball or shell etc.) in a high arc"\n"a toss ormaybe it's a soft hit?"\n"To throw like a softball pitch. Ball archs above batters head on the way to the plate" - especially this one...try to answer it (which is incorrect) and then explain your incorrect answer...wow...\n"Underhanded throw which is weak. Don't confuse it with the underhand throws from a girls softball leauge. Those are FAST!!!!" - and this one...\n"A lob is a ball tossed to another person usually in a high arc."\n"A POP FLY IN THE INFIELD I THINK"\n\nGLAD I COULD HELP :)

power plays are basically 2 sets of 5overs which the bowling sides when to bring in... Before at the start of an innings 15 overs had fielding restrictions.. meaning only 2 fielders outside the 15yard circle... now.. that 15 overs have been changed to 20.. with 10 (compulsory)at the start of innings and then 2 sets of 5 overs with fielding restrictions.. which could be brought in any time\n\nsupersub is someone who replaces a player anytime in the game .. takes his responsibilities... now.. there is a lot of confusion in it.. it is basically a 12th man which may/or maynot take part in the game straight away/ and it is chosen by the captain before the toss.. so some choose bowlers and other choose batsman.. now.. when the game starts and u batted first (for e.g) and now u have to bowl in the second innings .. and u know u have a bowler as a supersub/.. so what captains do is to replace a batsman wid a bowler.. that way batsman who wouldnt have bowled in the second innings(when they are fielding) is exchanged by a bowler .. whose got his full 10 overs to bowl.. this way a bowler could be changed for a batsman .. depending on the situation... \n\nhope this must have cleared ur doubt

Any one in the team can bowl, even a wicket keeper. The only thing is that some body should keep the wickets, while a wicket keeper is bowling.\nCheck this link to know some more interesting rules.\nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/low/cricket/rules_and_equipment/4183586.stm

50 overs any time. twenty20 is like highlights of a 50 overs match. the bowlers r there to be belted around, not make a match thru their ability. batsmen r there to slog fm the beginning. what abt the real tussles between the batsmen and bowlers? \n50 overs match it is for me.

The details about slider, flipper and top spinner are given below:\n\nSLIDER:\n------------ \n\nIn cricket, a slider is a type of delivery bowled by a wrist spin bowler. Whereas a topspinner is released with the thumb facing the batsman, a slider is bowled with the thumb facing 180 degrees away from the bowler. On release the wrist and ring finger work to impart backspin on the ball. A topspinner tends to dip more quickly and bounce higher than a normal delivery. The slider does the opposite: it floats to a fuller length and bounces less than the batsman might expect.\n\nThe classic slider heads with its seam aligned towards the batsman and may tend to swing in slightly. Sliders may also head towards the batsman with a scrambled seam. This has less effect on the flight and bounce but absence of leg spin may deceive the batsman. It is claimed that Shane Warne invented this type of delivery.\n\nFLIPPER\n-------------\n\nThe flipper is the name of a particular bowling delivery used in cricket, generally by a leg spin bowler. Squeezed out of the front of the hand with the thumb and first and second fingers, it keeps deceptively low after pitching and can accordingly be very difficult to play.\n\n\nThe flipper comes out underneath the hand at delivery. There must be sufficient tension in the wrist and fingers to impart a good helping of backspin or underspin. In doing so the flipper will float on towards the batsman and land on a fuller length than he anticipated, often leaving him caught on the back foot when he wrongly assumes it to be a pullable or a cuttable ball. The back spin or underspin will cause the ball to hurry on at great pace with very little bounce, though this may be harder to achieve on softer wickets. A series of normal leg spinners or topspinners, with their dropping looping flight, will have the batsman used to the ball pitching on a shorter length. The batsman may wrongly assume that the flipper will drop and loop like a normal overspinning delivery. \n\nTOP SPINNER:\n---------------------\n\nA a topspinner is a delivery where the ball comes out the top of the bowler's hand, causing it to spin in the direction of travel. The ball tends to dip in flight, but when the ball bounces, it bounces higher than normal and travels quicker than it would have done with no spin. Consequently, the batsman is more likely to hit the ball in the air, increasing the chances of him being caught out. However, due to the forward spin, a topspinner will occasionally "shoot through", with very low bounce.\n\nA topspinner is generally bowled by a leg spinner or an off spinner. Because the spin is entirely in the direction the ball is travelling in, the ball does not change direction when it bounces as a normal spin delivery would. This can trick the batsman, who may nick the ball behind the stumps, and be caught out by the wicket-keeper or one of the slip fielders. \n\nIf you would like to have more details, please check the following website:\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowling_%28cricket%29

Isn't your statement a bit puerile? Surely, you already know the answer to this question, but only wish to make a joke about the language of cricket. Frankly, they do have funny lingo. Like, what is a Silly Mid-off?...or LBW, Leg before wicket...fine but what if hits another part of the body...Scapula Before Wicket? Is that part of LBW? Or NBW. Nose Before Wicket!
