When I used to play u14's cricket I remember the main bowler in our side used to make two rotations of the arm that held the ball before delivery. I remember other kids at school also bowling like this. Having just watched some Barry Richards youtube, I noticed a bowler using this method (at 1m26s in) It seems to be absent in modern cricket but I got wondering if it was ever as common an action as I remember from my school days.

Are there any notable bowlers in test cricket who used this method? and for the sake of curiosity, can anyone identify that bowler in the footage?
Who is the best ever double rotation bowler?
