Bowling types in Cricket
Quick Bowling
There was a time that excellent length deliveries with vicious bouncers and swings were the core and soul of fast bowlers. In the past, West Indians were known and even feared for their swift bowling attacks. However, with the advent of T20 Cricket, small boundaries and heavier bats pace bowlers are required to introduce a variety of new tools in their arsenal. Slower and yorkers have become an essential component of the fast bowlers today. Let's look at each kind of cricket bowling one at a time:
Bouncer
It is essential, to begin with the bouncer. A term that is synonymous with speed throwing, the bouncer can be among the more deadly shots in cricket. When you pitch the ball with a shorter length, a properly directed bouncer will more than knock the player.
Because of the dangers due to its dangers, bouncer rules have been altered a couple of times. At present, bowlers are permitted the bowling of two bouncers over in ODIs and another in T20s.
English bowlers made a splash using this method of bowling in the 1932/33 Ashes to knock Sir Don Bradman out. The tragic loss of Phil Hughes caused even more worries about bouncers in contemporary Cricket however, it continues to play an important part in both tests as well as limited-overs cricket.
Outswinger
The perfect set-up for the right-handed batsman playing test cricket. A well-pitched ball that is on the right length on the fourth stump, separating from the right-hander and fielders who are waiting for even the slightest touch of the edge can be an ideal scenario for any bowler who is a pace.
Outswingers force batsmen to chase the ball in order to achieve the edge, however, when they are driven well it's a treat for the eyes. The right-arm bowler with right-handed and left-arm to a southpaw are the perfect configuration for deliveries that outswing due to the angles they create as they move far away from the batsman. In reverse situations, it can be difficult for bowlers to find the right angle to remove the ball from the batter.
