As in case of leg spinners, off spinners also should develop a variation in their bowling. The only other delivery, apart from off spin, that an off spinner can bowl is the straight delivery. this delivery, as the name implies, goes straight after pitching. It is bowled with the same action as the off spin delivery but instead of turning, it moves straight into the batsman, catching him by surprise. normally, the batsman ends up offering a catch to the slips or to the wicket-keeper. E.A.S Prasanna was a past master beguiling batsman convincingly with this delivery, which yielded him a large number of wickets.Instead os spinning the ball, the bowler merely pushes it through towards the slips. The bowler should let his finger slide round and under the ball as it leaves the hand.
