Thanks for using my question on the show David. I've mulled over your email advice as well and have decided to make the switch. I see Mark's point about having an impact, getting a go etc but with 34 wickets in 7 games last season and an average bowling spell of 11 overs a game in the 2011 season, that was from being a concern. I've always been a cricket fanatic and have always been of the opinion that spinners need a lot of strength and technique to give the ball a good rip. Like you said, being a reasonable seamer gives me a stock delivery to which I could add both the cutters and a few change of pace balls but being a reasonable spinner that gives it a massive rip means I should be able to do a lot of focused practice on my stock delivery. My short term goal is to increase the amount of revs I can get on a ball, I get very strange looks squeezing a cricket ball all the day while talking to clients over the phone, and to then add a reasonable arm ball (or a floater, drifter or anything else you want to call it). I hope you have a good off spinning course on here as I intend on buying one as soon as winter nets begin!
