	Outswinger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An outswinger is bowled by holding the cricket ball with the seam vertical and the first two fingers running along either side of the seam.
		Also, outswingers often mean the batsman has to swing his bat away from his body, so an inside edge can ricochet on to the wicket and get him out bowled.
		A left-handed batsman has less difficulty facing outswingers, because the ball moves in towards his body (It is a wide if the outswinger doesn't swing into the a left handed batsmen), meaning the batsman's legs are usually in the path of the ball if it misses the bat or takes an edge.

	Inswinger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Inswingers are not considered to be as difficult for a right-handed batsman to play as an outswinger.
		This is because the ball moves in towards his body, meaning that his body is often behind the line of the ball, and any miscalculated shot that is hit by the edge of the bat may be intercepted by his body rather than flying to a fielder for a catch.
		A particularly effective delivery is the inswinging yorker, which can cause a batsman to attempt to pull his feet out of the line of the ball, leaving him vulnerable to being bowled, or out lbw if he is too slow.

		This allowed a lot of ordinary batsmen to come forward and smother his swing and that is why, in later years, when he did not get as much movement as he did with the outswinger in those early years, he found it difficult to get his wickets.
		His outswinger then, was as the celebrated Indian all-rounder Bapu Nadkarni would say "a banana outswinger".
		The outswinger is easy to tap away for runs, in lim- ited overs cricket, for there are hardly any slip fielders for the edge, while the inswinger, if bowled well, cramps the batsman and tucks him up.

		What happens is simple; you find yourself irresistibly drawn by a terrible urge to play this outswinger but can manage only to edge it into the waiting hands of the slip cordon.
		When one is in love, one is seized with this urge to hold her hands, put a flower in her hair or even read out a poem to her.
		It shall require a tremendous effort of will to be able to overcome this urge each and every time you play an outswinger and even if you succeed and decide against playing it, the outswinging ball can yet take a faint touch of your unresponsive, passive bat and cause your downfall.

	What I thought was "Reverse Swing"... : Cricketfundas.com
		So as stated above, the ball moves in the direction of the shine, irrespective of whether the bowler is gripping the ball for an outswinger or an inswinger.
		Even a half volley with this kind of ball may not be as easy as it appears for the batsman, with a gate opening between bat and pad (the batsman attempting a cover drive) as he tends to play for the outswinger.
		Outside offstump line may only result in the batsman being beaten, so the more effective line would be on offstump, the length should be around the good length - forcing the batsman to play a forward defensive shot.

		The key to knowing what type of delivery it is, watch the seam closely and you should be able to tell which direction the seam is facing.

		Powell is a fierce striker of the ball and duly sent Makhaya Ntini's half-volley whistling through mid-off for four and Lance Klusener's short ball over the long-leg boundary for six.
		The length was neither full nor short for his other seven deliveries, the last of which, an outswinger from Klusener, found an indecisive edge to the 'keeper.
		In the circumstances, an on-drive was not the best choice of shot against another Klusener outswinger that pitched middle and was diverted to third slip from the leading edge.

		To bowl the genuine outswinger, the seam must be pointed towards slip.
		The closer you get to the stumps while you bowl the prefect outswinger with the side-on action the more likely it is that the batsman will be forced to play at the ball.
		But if a batsman is showing the tendency to play to leg you should aim at his leg and middle stumps so that he may be induced to hit across the line of the outswinger.

		Installed a marginal favourite at 9-5 with claiming apprentice Marklee Buchanan aboard, NO TEAR was unable to go the early pace as OUTSWINGER (7-1) under in-form Dane Nelson and SWEET JADE (3-1) disputed the lead ahead of highly fancied THE SEA PRINCESS in the six-strong field.
		OUTSWINGER swung into the straight a length or so clear of SWEET JADE on the inside, at which stage NO TEAR was forced to come wide into the straight, still in last position.
		But, although OUTSWINGER sprinted clear approaching the distance, looking all over a winner at this stage, NO TEAR had other ideas.

		Surely one of the most vivid areas of discussion on the study of Greco-Roman artillery today is that concerning the position of the bow-arms in palintone (both stone- and arrow-shooting) machines.
		In conclusion, the Hatra machine would be of -to say the least- dubious efficiency as an outswinger and it would perform more logically as an inswinger.
		It is not very complicated to correct by hand the arms' position in a small and not very powerful catapult as the cheiroballistra is but it would be practically impossible in standard medium ballistae.

	The Science behind the art of Cricket (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Normal swing is achieved by maintaining laminar boundary layer air-flow on the shiny side whilst creating turbulent flow on the seam side.
		These deliveries, particularly the outswinger, are the bread and butter of opening bowlers who get to use the ball while it is still new.
		Although the seam is oriented in the same way as for an outswinger and the action is the same, the rough side of the ball is to the fore, and the ball moves in to the batsman like an inswinger.

		The spit rock, better known as reverse swing, has been very effective here in South Africa during the World Cup and was a huge factor when I took five-for against New Zealand in Port Elizabeth last week.
		The new ball will swing early a certain way - for me, it's usually an outswinger - depending on factors such as your action or the angle of your wrist at the point of delivery.
		But when the ball is old and scuffed, late reverse swing can really trouble batsmen, who often struggle to pick it up in time.
