		Depending on technique, a spin bowler uses his wrist or finger motion to impart spin to the ball around a horizontal axis that is at an oblique angle to the length of the pitch.

		IN response to a request from the Sri Lankan Cricket Board, directed through Mr Daryl Foster and the ICC (contact from Mr David Richardson) Mr Muttiah Muralitharans spin bowling action was assessed in the Biomechanics Laboratory of the School of Human Movement and Exercise Science at the University of Western Australia.
		Portus et al (2003), the only published work in the area of changes of elbow angle during fast bowling, suggested the ICC range of acceptability should be increased to 15 degrees if a large number of current fast bowlers are not to be subject to scrutiny and then remediation (none has been called for "throwing").
		Murali is now bowling the "doosra" with a more side-on action, which has reduced the amount of straightening of his bowling arm between horizontal and ball release to 10 degrees.
