This could be rather tricky for batsmen 14:29 - Oct 5 with 827 viewsStokieBlue

If he is good and improves so he can use it to confuse batsmen he could be quite something:

All depends if the actual deliveries are any good though.

Doesn't the bowler have to signal what arm he intends to use prior to delivery? From the article, it appears that it's only orthodox slow deliveries he bowls. Doesn't really hint at any great mystery. I can remember the last Mendis they had as a spinner. Had a great first year then every test nation sussed him out.

The umpire has to announce any change of bowling (e.g. from around the wicket to over). So the arm-change wouldn't surprise batsman like that.

The main utility would be that he is able to spin the ball the same way (i.e. in or out) for both left- and right-handed batsmen.

Good Lord! Whatever is it?

That's very true I guess.

I think we'll take the ODI series comfortably but can see lots of sub 200 scores in the tests unfortunately. Better outfits than us struggle in Sri Lanka.

Could also be very annoying for the batsman if he changed every 2 balls. Even if signalled it gets you out of your rhythm.
