She played squash for 21 years and for 19 of those she was undefeated, and only lost two matches near the start of hear career in the entire 21 years she played competitively. In that time she won 16 British Opens (back when that was the unofficial world title) and 14 Australian titles, the first two ever women's world titles (which did not exist until very late in her career). She also so far above the rest of the women that she trained againts men too.
      She also represented Australia in Field Hockey during her squash career and after retiring from squash she won 9 US and Canadian Racquet Ball titles before returning to Australia to play Veterans Tennis.
      She is largely forgotten due to her sports declining in popularity but statistically she is easily one of the most dominant sports people Australia and the World has ever seen.

    Yeah, Warne really knew his stuff - highly intelligent cricketer, and jeez his skills were good.
    And when you're talking about the pure shock of batters facing him, you're absolutely right. The very first delivery he ever bowled in international cricket, known as "the Jaffa" or just "the Ball", was a lot like that - he bowled Mike Gatting around his legs, and Gatting just kinda stood there in disbelief. Nearest baseball equivalent offhand: ball is obviously pitching way outside the hitting zone, batter sees that and doesn't swing, and then the ball just magically hooks around through the middle of the hitting zone. Plus a single strike is an out, and the out applies to the batter rather than the team.
    On the movement thing: deviation through the air is called swing, and deviation off the pitch is (mostly) called spin. Other commenters have already said that the ball is hard and I think they've talked about the raised seam as a major aerodynamic thing, but also the ball has a rough side and a shiny side. Ball starts out really hard with both sides shiny, but it softens over the course of an innings and the fielding team will consistently shine/polish one side and let the other side get rough. That's where a lot of swing comes from, especially for fast bowlers, but also fast bowlers can bowl faster with a new ball and spin bowlers can get more movement with an old ball. And we do have rules against spitballs - that's why the players wear that brightly-coloured zinc cream instead of normal sunscreen, because sunscreen could be used for ball tampering.
    The clips in this video are an interesting selection btw: they actually included the Ball that I mentioned above, plus the delivery where David Boon's incredible catch completed Warne's hat trick (3 outs in 3 deliveries). Definitely recommend watching longer videos of both of those, where you get the context before and after - in particular the absolute confusion of Mike Gatting looking around like wtf just happened to my leg stump.
    I didn't like Shane Warne as a person, but jeez he was an incredible cricketer.

    • @newremote
      @newremote Před měsícem

      Great ball, but he didn't bowl Gatting around his legs. The ball pitched outside leg and turned across the front of Gatting's pads, taking his off stump. His test debut was actually against India in January 1992. The Gatting ball was his first in England, in June 1993.

  • @RolandjHearn
    @RolandjHearn Před rokem +16

    Great job guys, always enjoy your work. It may not be immediately apparent but there is a genuine skill to knowing when to bowl each ball. I think you will probably remember what an "over" is, but just in case - an over is a six ball set that each bowler bowls and then there is a change of bowler and end ( reversing the direction of play on the pitch). So a bowler will bowl 4-6 overs from one end (direction) while another bowler will be doing the same from the other end. A spin bowler, in this case leg spin, will bowl almost exclusively the standard delivery. The batsmen will set himself for that delivery. Once he is use to the pitch and bounce that is when the bowler will start to change the type of delivery. So one of the great joys of cricket, once you know the game, is watching how a bowler is setting the batsmen up. So people, that don't really know the game, think nothing is happening, but there is this enormous strategic game being played all the time and that is what a fan is watching. That is why true fans of cricket prefer the longer Test version of cricket, because that is when all the strategies are given time to develop.

    Shane Warne is the second highest wicket taker in cricket history. Before he took the cricket stage the fast, pace bowlers were the stars of the bowling game; he changed that with one ball in 1993 and became a cricketing legend both on and off (!) the field. leg spin was pretty much dying out and he revitalised this mysterious, and often devious, art from. this is coming from an English man; we loved the guy even when he was destroying our batting line ups! every time he picked that ball up your heart sank lol RIP Warney.

    The swing bowlers polish one side of the ball and allow the other side to get roughed up. This creates lift and moves the ball sideways in the air. The sunblock on his nose and lip will find its way onto the ball to help with the polishing.

      @@RealFansSports there are usually 6 rows of stitching, three either side of the seem. This is why a standard cricket ball can also be called a '6-stich'. The seem and stiching creates the line of highest grip when the ball bounces. Also, you will see some bowlers in white with a red stain from groin to hip (or down the outside of the leg), this is the mark left from 'polishing' the ball. what they try to do over time is to make the ball shiny on only one side of the seam. As the ball travels through the air, there is less resistance on the shiny side, helping to curve the ball through the air.

    A cricket ball is sometimes called a '6 stitcher' because of its 6 rows of stitching that hold the two hemispheres of leather together. They are as hard as a rock and can do some real damage. The stitching creates a raised seam, which gives the ball all manner of crazy aerodynamic qualities. The ball starts off shiney, and gradually deteriorates as the innings progresses, suiting different styles of bowling.

    Warne was a master at control and probably the greatest bowler of all time, slow or fast. Also, spinners sometimes bowl a LOT of deliveries in a day. They may do over 30 overs per day in a test match. That's 180 deliveries or more. It's so difficult as a leg spin bowler to control the ball even for just one over. Warne was also a tactical genius. When you see him talk about setting batsmen up with different deliveries, and his thought processes that go into it, you realise how good he was. An absolute master of his craft and a genuinely nice bloke. Gone way too young. RIP

    Great video. You both seem very interested in the mechanics of leg spin. Now you are aware of the main deliveries a leg spinner (sometimes called a wrist spinner) has in his arsenal, check out the famous delivery he bowled to Mike Gatting at Old Trafford back in 1993.
    As the great man himself used to say 'You don't beat good batsmen off the ground, you beat them in flight.' What he meant by that, was that batsmen who are good players of spin bowling, will allow for the spin off the ground when they are choosing which shot to play and where they intend on trying to hit the ball. If the bowler is able to obtain 'drift' and/or dip with his delivery, this adds a whole new dimension of pain to the batsman in choosing how to try and play the ball. Drift is based on what is know as the 'Magnus effect' and essentially means the ball will drift through the air in the opposite direction to which spin has been applied to it. This only really happens if the seam is in a perfectly upright position and is spinning cleanly with no wobble, thus allowing physics to work it's magic on the ball. It is remarkably difficult to deliver a ball in such a way, which is why there is usually only very small amounts of drift seen for a wrist spinner, if indeed any at all.
    This particular ball he bowled to Mike Gatting is the perfect example of this and is so unique, it is often referred to as 'The ball of the century.' No has ever really delivered a ball like this before or since. He got almost 12 inches of drift, and then got the ball to violently spin at a right angle. The laws of physics were almost rewritten by this ball which is why it was so special.
    Now you understand the basics of leg spin, I'm sure you'll really appreciate the ball in question. Enjoy!

So down to earth, a regular joe. This guy was absolute box office, the fiercest competetor, and perhaps the greatest spin bowler in the history of world cricket (Murili a close second). The art of spin is solely to deceive the batter into a mistake, no one could disguise a ball or get as much spin as Warne. He read the conditions, his opponents and the pressure required. He could make great batters look foolish, and they all feared his skills. Genius. He was jaw dropping to watch, an absolute star of the game. RIP. Context... You're listening to the Michael Jordan of Spin Bowling.

    Warnie was best known for his huge leg break, top spinner and trademark flipper.
    Other leg spinners tend to favour the wrong umpire or googly more as a wicket taking delivery.
    Warnie wasn’t known as much for bowling that way but was super accurate and would get spin anywhere

    You might also want to check out something on seam bowling - as the name suggests, the seam is involved, causing a somewhat unpredictable bounce. Not as much spin is placed on the bowl and it’s really a form of fast bowling

    Warnie was a controversial character on and off the cricket field. His fling with Liz Hurley, getting off drug charges by blaming his mum, even the way he passed away was different. I think he may have even been involved in Mark Waugh’s betting scandal. They made a musical about him. An all round legend.

    Great content again guys. It's cool to see people with different perspectives on things look at these things. There seems to always have been some value in looking cross code for experiences etc and baseball and cricket are just so similar in a lot of ways it would be crazy to not consider what other people do and think.

  • @Shivian124
    @Shivian124 Před 9 měsíci +1

    4:34 I find it a bit counter-intuitive but the topspinner actually *bounces* more with the overspin. And even worse, the ball in the initial flight dips quite sharply. So the batter is tricked into thinking the ball is full (closer to them), they advance to get to the pitch (aka where it is bouncing) but it dips late leaving the batsman short of getting where they need to be and then the ball bounces up sharply.
    It's actually quite a nice weapon for a bowler because trajectory up from a full length ball is very very dangerous as you can see from the close in catchers on the topspin ball. They struggle to keep the ball down.

  • @DavidUKesb
    @DavidUKesb Před rokem +1

    The flipper is extremely difficult to bowl effectively even for most professional spin bowlers. What Warnie failed to mention is that because the ball is squeezed out (like an orange pip) from under the hand, the trajectory is lower than the other variations leading the batsman to think the ball is going to land short of a good length. The batsman therefore plays 'back' when he should actually be playing 'forward' which can result in him missing the ball and being bit on the pads and possibly out LBW.

    The ball has a cork centre with two leather halves stitched together in the middle.
    9:35 NonPfixion is right on there. The spin of the ball makes it curve or "drift" one way in the air, and when it hits the ground it spins back the opposite way. The angle of the wrist is the only thing changing between the first 3 balls.
    They aren't even really the highlights of his bowling!

    I've always had respect for spin bowlers like Warney. I know very well from playing cricket in my youth that it takes huge dedication for a kid to become a great spinner. This is because of the one major factor that wasn't mentioned in this video... precision. Warney could place a beer coaster on 18 yrds, rip seriously high RPM's on different spin deliveries and hit that mark more often than not.
    But just like every other spin bowler, when he was a kid starting out, he wouldn't get much spin, if any, and his precision would have been poor, meaning he was getting hit all over the park! Most deliveries from kid spin bowlers are just slow balls that stand up and beg to be nailed to the boundary.
    Sticking with it, working through the disappointment of behind knocked around, still practicing every day for years and eventually becoming one of the best bowlers of any type to have every played the game, demands maximum respect.

    Skin cancer is a huge problem in Australia and wearing Zinc cream .The Ball has a seam where two halves of red leather are stitched together . The ball will change trajectory on where the seam lands. Then add in where you bowl at the crease and either side of the wicket . You do need to bowl above the shoulder the higher the better. Try swinging your arm to brush you ear. My tip on how to learn to bowl better

    Cricket ball is a complex device (like a baseball no doubt) Many different components and two hemispheres of hard leather sewn together. That seam can make all the difference when it bounces of the pitch at 100Mph. As the ball gets older it slows down. The teams "polish" one hemisphere and (illegally) grind rough up the other (Australian cheats) this causes the ball to "swing"

    When I watched this video years ago, when I was littler, I remember thinking, "Oh, that's not actually all that different, they're all held the same way. Why does everyone think this guy is so special?". Now that I'm older and understand a bit more, I realise that the fact they're all held the same way is part of the genius. Most bowling coaches helping players develop different kinds of deliveries will try to get players to minimise the differences in the player's action, so it's not tipping the batsman off. Good luck getting the ball to do anything different that way. But that's the theory.

  • @seanmc1351
    @seanmc1351 Před 7 měsíci

    if you watch closely guys, the spinner has the batsman all over the place, as a batsman, you want to hit the ball where it pitches on the ground, which takes the spin out of it, thats why you see them move down the wicket or back up to the stumps, you get the flight of the ball wrong, and late to where it pitches, your in trouble, you miss, stumped out, to far back, hits your legs your out, thats why they vary the length if you watch the batsman and not just the bowler

    .
    Spin bowling is a dark art, the ball can swing in the air or bounce left or right so the batter doesn't know where the ball is going to pitch. Good spin bowlers can mix left, right and straight balls in an over, which can become a very intense psychological battle.
    Modern Televised games have a DRS element ,( digital review system), a fielding side appeals for an out and the batting side can challenge this with a DRS. (Bit like a booth review in NFL) It's great fun and adds to the tension, worth searching a video or 2 on the DRS and Hawkeye decisions, you can see the spin in slo-mo, it's awesome
    The ball is about the size of a tennis ball and weighs 5 1/2 ounces and it is very hard, it stings when you catch it (if you have poor technique) only the wicket keeper is allowed to wear gloves. There have been deaths on the pitch when a player has been struck by a fast ball, these days batters are better protected, but broken fingers are not unusual and aggressive body-line bowling can lead to serious bruising. Some limited overs cricket is played with a white ball which is easier to see and works for games at night under food lights. First class cricket uses a red ball, which is harder to see and that in turn helps Captains set up more aggressive field placings.
    One key element of all cricket formats is the role of the Captain . Unlike most other sports, coaches have no role once the game gets underway. The Captains decide on tactics, bowler selection and field placings, great captains are tactical geniuses, especially the way they martial bowlers and move fielders to take advantage of the ground's dimensions and exploit the skill sets and vulnerabilities of the batters.
