Spin battle - Kuldeep Yadav v Shadab Khan v Mason Crane

[R0H1T]

Yadav is not a mystery spinner, he is a genuine spinner who turns the ball. Laughable comment.

Yeah everyone's a mystery spinner these days, apparently people forget what traditional spinners (offie or leggie) used to look like back in the day. The Mendis' & Narine's of this world have made mystery spin as some sort of a big thing, when in fact regular spinners will always outlast them in the long run.

This isn't the googly. It would be a googly (the opposite of a legspinner) if a leggie (right arm wrist-spinner) was bowling but this is the conventional Chinaman delivery.

An interesting thing to notice about Kuldeep is that even while Bowling his variations his pace doesn't change much.

An old MCC definition of a googly is that it is a ball that turns in the opposite direction from what batsmen expects.

such low quality batting

Bowler's quality can still be judged easily by visuals only.

I personally think the terms should be different. Chinaman's googly should be called wrong'un. But then, you would also need another name for a SLA's doosra.

Yadavs bowling is coming on leaps and bounds;The guy has incredible control and turns the ball miles. Shadab struggled in NZ but overall has made great strides. Over to Crane to what he can do this summer.
