	Full toss - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Full tosses are rarely bowled deliberately, as they defeat the purpose of most types of delivery, which is to deceive the batsman by bouncing on the pitch.
		A full toss is typically the result of an unintentional error made while attempting to bowl a yorker.
		Occasionally a full toss can surprise a batsman so effectively that he is unable to play it properly, and this can lead to a wicket, but no bowler relies on this.

		Before 1875 the pitcher was obliged to deliver the ball with a full toss only, but about that time a disguised underhand throw,, which greatly increased the pace, began to be used so generally- that it was soon legalized, and the overhand throw followed as a matter of course.
		As long as the arm was held stiff no curve could be imparted to the flight of the ball in theair, but with the increase of pace came the possibility of doing this by a movement of the wrist as the ball left the hand,, the twist thus given.
		Frequently, if the ball is batted to the infield while a runner is on first-base, the fielder tosses it to second-baseman, putting out the runner, and the second-baseman has still time to throw the ball to first-base ahead of the batsman, thus completing a double play.

	Yorker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The main strength of the yorker is as a surprise weapon, when the batsman has become accustomed to hitting shorter-pitched balls and not using the bat with the speed necessary to defend against a yorker.
		Yorkers are also notoriously difficult to bowl correctly, as a slight variation in length can mean the yorker will pitch just short of the batsman—making the ball into a half volley that is easy to hit—or will reach the batsman without bouncing—which makes the ball a full toss, that is also easy to hit.
		The margin for error is slim, which is why bowlers do not bowl yorkers more frequently.

		The randomness in a coin toss, it appears, is introduced by sloppy humans.
		But using high speed cameras and equations, Diaconis and colleagues have now found that even though humans are largely unpredictable coin flippers, there's still a bias built in: If a coin starts out heads, it ends up heads when caught more often than it does tails.
		Note: In football's inaugural kickoff coin toss*, the coin is not caught but allowed to bounce on the ground.
