ART OF BOWLING LEG SPIN
The grip is two fingers up and two down, with the split
between the second and third fingers, which are spread across the seam.
The thumb rests on the ball and does not do anything.
Shane says his grip is a little unusual because his first
two fingers are closer than most leg-spinners.
The delivery - The spin on the ball is roughly 30 degrees
so that the ball both spins sideways and dips with the overspin.
Closest variation is the top-spinner, where the seam points to the
wicketkeeper and the ball over-spins straight down the pitch.
