Is This Spinner’s Unique Bowling Action Inspired By Anil Kumble? Cricket Fans Are Impressed With His ‘Doosra Drama’
A video from Malaysia Tour 2025 in Kuala Lumpur has gone viral on social media, thanks to a spinner's bizarre bowling action. Grabbing hold of the ball in his left arm initially, Supandeep Singh of Nalwa Warriors was seen twice jumping awkwardly.
Singh then shifted the ball to his right hand midway through and twisted his body to eventually release the ball as a right-arm wrist-spinner in the most unconventional action.
Shocking Bowling Action
While the game of cricket has seen many unique bowling actions, this one from the Malaysia-based spinner must be the most distinctive and peculiar in nature. A popular X account that shared the video suggested that the spinner has adopted the style of legends like Muttiah Muralitharan, Shane Warne, Anil Kumble and Harbhajan Singh and combined them all, sarcastically calling it the “best bowling action ever!".
When the video began, everyone assumed that Singh was a left-arm bowler. But fans were left baffled after Singh shuffled the ball in his run-up and switched to a right-arm wrist-spinner.
Bowling Action Causes Hysteria
As the batter attempted a big hit down the ground and was out stumped, fans felt he “got confused" by the bowling action, which even left the umpire “shocked".
“That mid-delivery switch? Pure sorcery – batter's face screaming ‘which arm now?' Supandeep channelling Murali vibes without the doosra drama," said an individual.
“How is this even legal? Bowler has to declare his bowling arm….he can change mid-over after informing…not without that…so either batter missed reading the ball or bowler changed his arm..which is wrong, isn't it???" asked another social media user, raising a question mark over the legality of the delivery.
According to MCC Law 21.1.1, pertaining to the mode of delivery, “The umpire shall ascertain whether the bowler intends to bowl right-handed or left-handed, over or round the wicket, and shall so inform the striker." If the bowler fails to notify the umpire about his bowling arm, the law deems it unfair on the batter and gives the official the right to signal a no-ball.
