Leg-spin is a type of bowling in the sport of cricket where the bowler spins the ball from the leg side to the off side. This technique involves the bowler using their wrist to impart spin, causing the ball to turn sharply after it bounces. It is typically bowled by a right-handed bowler to a right-handed batsman. Leg-spin can be challenging for batsmen to face due to its unpredictable bounce and spin. A successful leg-spinner often uses variations, such as the googly, which spins in the opposite direction, to deceive the batsman. This makes leg-spin an important skill in a bowler's arsenal.
