Roundarm bowling

Roundarm bowling is a classic technique that emerged in the early 19th century that predates underarm bowling. This throwing technique assumes that the bowler will throw the ball with his hand perpendicular to the outstretched body, i.e. the swing does not go from top to bottom but from back to front.

Some believe that the classic version of roundarm bowling allows a player to get the best bounce. True, today, it is difficult to argue with this because the coatings are becoming more and more qualitative, and the throw itself requires a certain level of skill. In this regard, the roundarm technique has been replaced by a more effective overarm method. However, roundarm bowling is not prohibited, so it can be legally used in any match.
