off spin

Off spin is a type of bowling in cricket where the bowler imparts a spin to the ball so that, when it bounces on the pitch, it turns from the off side to the leg side of a right-handed batsman. This is achieved by the bowler spinning the ball with their fingers, causing it to change direction after bouncing, making it challenging for the batsman to predict and hit accurately. Off spin is a strategic variation used to deceive batsmen and create opportunities for wickets.
