on BBC Two England

A series of ten films about the history and playing of the game. 6: The Spinners with contributions by Richie Benaud , Ray Illingworth and Ellis Achong
'It's less easy to categorise spin than it is pace-bowling. Spin is fundamentally of two kinds. The first is finger spin, off two fingers, which is controllable. The other is wrist spin when the ball is let out of the side or the back of the hand with an unnatural twist. That's not so easily controllable ...'
