who is known as china man in cricket.?

Answer 1

In cricket, left-arm unorthodox spin – often known as slow left-arm chinaman and abbreviated to SLC – is a style of bowling. The bowler uses a wrist torsion action to spin the ball so that when it pitches it turns from off to leg for a right-handed batsman, i.e. from left to right from the bowler's perspective. The action and direction of turn exactly mirror those of a conventional right-handed leg spin bowler. Charlie 'Buck' Llewellyn, a South African all-rounder who played at the end of the 19th century, laid claim to inventing the delivery. Some chinaman bowlers occasionally bowl the mirror image of a leg-spinner's "googly" (or "wrong'un" in Australia), which turns in the opposite way in order to trick the batsman. In this instance the ball turns away from the batsman, as if the bowler were an orthodox left-arm spinner.

The chinaman style of bowling is very rare, as not only is it difficult to bowl accurately (in common with leg spin), but the turn into the right-handed batsman is seen as less dangerous than the turn away from the batsman generated by an orthodox left-arm spinner, so virtually all left-armers choose to bowl orthodox. Very few specialist chinaman bowlers have played at Test level. The South African Paul Adams, well known for his unusual "frog-in-a-blender" bowling action, is perhaps the best known recent practitioner and has taken more Test wickets through chinaman bowling than any other player. The Australian Brad Hogg is the most successful ODI chinaman bowler, with over 100 wickets, but he does not regularly play in Tests. The young chinaman bowler Dave Mohammed of the West Indies has also played sporadically for his country since 2004. In recent times, Simon Katich and before him Michael Bevan have also bowled chinamen for Australia, although this role was secondary to their batting.

Historically the most famous practitioner of the art was the West Indian all-rounder Garfield Sobers, but he performed it as a third bowling style after left-arm orthodox spin and left-arm fast-medium. Previously, Johnny Wardle bowled both chinamen and orthodox left-arm spinners for England in the 1940s and '50s, and Leslie "Chuck" Fleetwood-Smith bowled chinamen for Australia in the 1930s.

Answer 2

A china man is a bowler who uses special wrist action to make the ball spin so that it turns from off to leg for the batsman. So, for the bowler, the ball spins from left to right.

So bascially, it's the opposite style of bowling to left-arm orthodox, where the ball spins to the left. This term is used for left-arm unorthodox spin.

Answer 3

A china man bowler is a left arm back of the arm bowler (wrist spinner), left arm unothodox if you will. It is analogous to a right arm leg break bowler.

Answer 4

It is not a who....................it is a what.

Chinaman is a ball bowled by are left arm legspinner. It is the same thing as the googly of the right arm legspinner which moves from off to leg.

Answer 5

A left hand bowler usually bowls off spin. But chinaman can bowl legspin in addition to offspin.

Answer 6

simply saying he is an left arm spinner like Jaya suriya of Srilanka(ex.)
