Wriggling Snake Feb 2020 2:06pm, 15 Feb 2020 25,505 posts	0 Wriggling Snake I had 4 'reliable' variations, short, full toss, slow, really slow.
Nicholls595 Feb 2020 2:23pm, 15 Feb 2020 18,960 posts	0 Nicholls595 I tried all sorts of filth in my time. Even bowled a beamer once (unintentionally). Remember bowling an outrageous flighted off break slower ball that pitched 2 feet outside off stump. Batsman swung himself off his feet as the ball gripped and spun back into the stumps. We laughed him all the way to the pavillion
