Left-arm unorthodox spin also known as slow left arm chinaman, is a type of left arm wrist off spin bowling in the sport of cricket. Left-arm unorthodox spin bowlers use wrist spin to spin the ball, and make it deviate, or "turn" from left to right after pitching.[1] The direction of turn is the same as that of a traditional right-handed off spin bowler; however, the ball will usually turn more sharply due to the spin being imparted predominantly by the wrist. Leg spinners are usually wrist spinners... right handed bowlers turning from leg to off for a right handed batsman. With the similar action, if the bowler occasionally can make the ball turn as off spin; this is called a Googly; When the left handed leg spinner bowl an off spin with a leg spin action; it called a Chinaman. The difference between Googly & Chinaman is the former is bowled by a right hand bowler whilst latter is bowled left handed bowler with similar action. Obviously the ball deviations of say any spin (including leg spin) our opposite in case right and left handed bowlers respectively.. regular or the wrong one`' Some left-arm unorthodox bowlers also bowl the equivalent of a "googly", (or "wrong'un"), which turns from right to left on the pitch. The ball turns away from the right-handed batsman, as if the bowler were an orthodox left-arm spinner.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.
