Fast bowling, sometimes known as pace bowling, is one of the two approaches to bowling in the sport of cricket. The other is spin bowling. Practitioners are usually known as fast bowlers or pace bowlers although sometimes the label used refers to the specific fast bowling technique that bowler prefers, such as swing bowler or seam bowler. \n\nThe main aim of fast bowling is to bowl the hard cricket ball at high speed and to induce it to bounce off the pitch in an erratic fashion or move sideways through the air, the combination of these factors making it difficult for the batsman to hit the ball cleanly. A typical fast delivery has a speed in the range 140 to 150 km/h (87 to 95 mph). The fastest delivery that has ever been officially recorded clocked in at 161.3 km/h (100.2 mph) and was bowled by Shoaib Akhtar of Pakistan during a match against England in the 2003 Cricket World Cup. The unfortunate batsman on the end of the delivery was Nick Knight, however his wicket remained intact. \n\nIn most cricketing countries, fast bowlers are usually considered to be the mainstay of a team's bowling attack, with slower bowlers in support roles. In the subcontinent, especially including India and Sri Lanka, the reverse is often true, with fast bowlers serving mainly to soften the ball up for the spinners. This is mainly due to the condition of the pitches used in those countries which gives more help to spinners than to fast bowlers, but at an international level it is also a reflection of the outstanding skills of their spinners compared to their often-mediocre pace bowlers.

A bowler releases a normal fast delivery with the wrist locked in position and the first two fingers positioned on top of the cricket ball, giving it spin about a horizontal axis perpendicular to the length of the pitch. For a leg cutter, a right-handed bowler pulls his fingers down the left side of the ball (from his viewpoint), rolling the ball out of his hand over the little finger, in an action similar to bowling a leg break, only at higher speed. This changes the axis of spin to make it more like a leg break, which makes the ball deviate to the left when it bounces on the pitch. From a right-handed batsman's point of view, this deviation is to the right, or from the leg side towards the off side. This deviation is known as cut, and the delivery is called a leg cutter because it moves away from the leg side.

The ball swings by the principal called Bernauli's Theorm.When the ball in spinning and going through air if the speed of air on the both sides are different then the ball will swing.This is done by spinning the ball in air or making one surface of ball rough and other shining.

When you naturally hit to the opposite field, it is considered to be very good, as it is much easier to learn to pull the ball than to learn to go the other way.  First thing is to check your stance.  If your back leg is further back from your front leg, this will shoot the ball to the opposite side.  Evening your legs out will help.  Make sure that when you swing, your knuckles are aligned, because if they aren't you will always hit to the opposite field. (Plus it saps all of your power!!! ALWAYS align your knuckles.)  Other than that, make a conscious effort to pull the ball by not trailing the head of the bat behind your hands.  Hope this helps.

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

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.

To swing the ball, one side of the ball should be made shinier, by rubbing on a smooth surface, ie your thigh, and the other side left dull. The ball should be gripped either side of the seem with the middle and index fingers. If the ball is bowled down straight along the seem then the diffence in friction on the dull and shiny sides should make the ball swing toward the dull side.\nOff spin is performed by gripping the ball with fingers along the seem and the thumb in opposition. The ball should be given a higher, slower trajectory and on release the hand turned as if opening/closing a jar. The more twist/whip applied the more the ball will turn on impact with the pitch. The ball should spin toward the arm used to ball.\nLeg spin produces a greater degree of spin, but is more difficult to maintain accuracy. The ball should be gripped in the fleshy part of the palm, opposite side to the thumb. As the arm comes over, the ball should be released from the back of the hand, so that it passes over the hand in transit. Again the more twist/whip the greater amount of spin produced. The ball should turn away from the direction of the arm used to bowl.

Many modes of dismissal require the wicket to be "put down". The wicket is put down if a bail is dislodged from the top of the stumps; or if a stump is struck out of the ground either by the ball, or by a fielder using his hand which is holding the ball. Of the following ten modes of dismissal, the first six are common, while the last four are technicalities which rarely occur. Briefly, the ten modes are:\n\nCaught — When a fielder catches the ball before the ball bounces and after the batsman has struck it with the bat or it has come into contact with the batsman's glove while it is in contact with the bat handle. The bowler and catcher are both credited with the dismissal. (Law 32) \n\nBowled — When a delivered ball hits the stumps at the batsman's end, and dislodges one or both of the bails. This happens regardless of whether the batsman has edged the ball onto the stumps or not. The bowler is credited with the dismissal. (Law 30) \n\nLeg before wicket (LBW) — When a delivered ball misses the bat and strikes the batsman's leg or pad, and the umpire judges that the ball would otherwise have struck the stumps. The laws of cricket stipulate certain exceptions in favour of the batsman; for instance, a batsman should not be given out LBW if the place where the ball bounced on the pitch is to the leg-side of the area strictly between the two wickets. The purpose of this rule is to prevent the batsman from unfairly using his pads to obstruct the passage of the ball without striking it. The bowler is credited with the dismissal. \n\nRun out — When a fielder, bowler or wicket-keeper removes one or both of the bails with the ball by hitting the stumps whilst a batsman is still running between the two ends. The ball can either hit the stumps directly or the fielder's hand with the ball inside it can be used to dislodge the bails. Such a dismissal is not officially credited to any player, although the identities of the fielder or fielders involved is often noted in brackets on the scorecard. \n\nStumped — When the batsman leaves his crease in playing a delivery, voluntarily or involuntarily, but the ball goes to the wicket-keeper who uses it to remove one or both of the bails through hitting the bail(s) or the wicket before the batsman has remade his ground. The bowler and wicket-keeper are both credited. This generally requires the keeper to be standing within arm's length of the wicket, which is done mainly to spin bowling. (Law 39) \n\nHit wicket — When the batsman accidentally knocks the stumps with either the body or the bat, causing one or both of the bails to be dislodged, either in playing a shot or in taking off for the first run. The bowler is credited with the dismissal. (Law 35) \n\nHandled the ball — When the batsman deliberately handles the ball without the permission of the fielding team. No player is credited with the dismissal. (Law 33) \n\nHit the ball twice — When the batsman deliberately strikes the ball a second time, except for the sole purpose of guarding his wicket. No player is credited with the dismissal. (Law 34) \n\nObstructing the field — When a batsman deliberately hinders a fielder from attempting to field the ball. No player is credited with the dismissal. (Law 37) \n\nTimed out — When a new batsman takes more than three minutes to take his position in the field to replace a dismissed batsman (If the delay is protracted, the umpires may cause the match to be forfeited). This rule prevents the batting team using time limits of the game to unfair advantage. No player is credited with the dismissal.-

A backwards K means that person struck out looking, but a regular one means they swung.

the stumps are the knee high posts behind the batter and on both sides of the batting area, the objective for the bowlers is to hit the stumps with a thrown ball while the batter swings and misses.   this is a wicket, equivalent to an out in baseball.  another way to make a wicket is to hit the stumps with the ball while the batters run between the 2 sets of stumps before they reach the line.  the bails are small objects resting on the stumps that fly off signaling that the ball has hit the stumps.  games have different ways to win, in most big international matches, 10 wickets, and your team's batting turn is over
