SLA bowlers question

[Graham]

Do they normally bowl from the left of the stumps or from the right of the stumps to a right handed batsman?

Left

 

[Kweek]

Left arm round. walking infront of the umpire.

 

[Graham]

Whereas a left arm quick would bowl from the right of the stumps to a right handed batsman.

 

[Graham]

If a SLA bowls from the left side of the stumps to a right handed batsman, then he'd bowl from the right side of the stumps to a left handed batsman then?

Lol, mine doesn't, but then that's Banhsey for you...

 

[Graham]

LOL

So a SLA breaks all the conventions really because he bowls from the same side of the stumps as an offie.

I should clear this up: Mine does. But I'm not sure about the rest of them, sorry.

like Tarick says, round the wicket but coming inbetween the umpire and the stumps

Except Ashley Giles!

Dan Vettori bowls with a straight run up on both sides of the wicket, you can do your back in bowling with an angled run up, its why Gough got injured so much

I've noticed that SLA bowlers take much more wickets while bowling a right handed batsman while bowling from right side of the stumps.
