Leg Break
A "Leg Break" is a type of delivery in the sport of cricket, primarily bowled by a leg spin bowler. It involves spinning the ball from the leg side to the off side, making it challenging for the batsman to predict its trajectory. The bowler uses wrist action to impart spin, causing the ball to turn sharply after pitching.
This delivery is effective in deceiving batsmen, often leading to mistakes and dismissals. A well-executed leg break can result in the ball hitting the stumps or being caught by fielders positioned strategically around the wicket.
