Those were good days, don’t get me wrong, but now my right hand is used for much more than that.

My right hand is Wisden’s newest hand of legspin.

Wisden are releasing a coaching book, because, well, who knows, but they are, and somehow I got myself at the photo shoot, and after a bit of off screen consulting, mostly trying to work out how you show a flipper in still photos, my hand was needed.

When people turn to legspin, the first thing they need to know is how to hold the ball, and that is what my hand shows them.

It is cocked, locked and ready to rip, just how you like it.

Some might see it as luck, that I was just in the right place at the right time, but I’ve watched Star Wars, and I know things like this don’t happen by accident.

I was sent to this world to share my right hand with everyone, in legspin and in life, things don’t happen by accident.

Wisden have put legspin into my safe hand, and from here on in I vouch to let my hand guide young children into the dark arts of legspin.

{Insert child molesting legspin based joke here}

Here I laugh at the doosra stuff.

There is also a leggie rant.

And, nothing to do with cricket, is a porn piece.

Or just check out my book, ashes 09: when freddie became jesus.
