Question

How to bowl a slow bouncer?

Answer 1

first you don't run then throw the bowl slow a little higher than usual and it will bounce and it will be slow.

Answer 2

a bouncer is pitched short so that it bounces on the pitch well short of the batsman and rears up to chest or head height (or even higher) as it reaches the batsman. to bowl a slow bouncer, the motion of your fingers should be backwards and use your three fingers to rotate the ball! the ball's line and length should be kept in mind i.e. it should be pitched short and the ball should have quite amount of force in it as after bouncing it'll become slow coz of your technique.

Answer 3

use your back of the hand to bowl the slower one. while run up jump up high to the crease and bowl slow bouncer

Answer 4

please reverse spins

Answer 5

If you can impart backward spin while releasing the ball(opposite of top spin), the ball after pitching will gain more height losing some speed.  

Answer 6

Why would you want to do that? If you don't have pace, don't bother bowling short. The batsmen in question will tear you apart.

If you really want to use it as a surprise weapon, you can either do it by rolling your fingers backwards on the ball at the moment of release, imparting back spin to the ball, and causing it to hold up after bouncing. Otherwise, you can bowl a standard slower delivery, by rolling your fingers over the ball in off-spin or (harder) leg-spin fashion, just control your delivery action to make sure the ball pitches short. Either method would allow bowling a slow, short ball.

The "split-finger" technique of bowling slower balls can also be used, but you will probably find it hard to get your line right if you are thinking about too many things at once (bowling a short ball, while executing a split-finger slower ball, which is hard to do in its own right)
