Bowling A Yorker
A yorker is usually delivered very late in the action with the hand almost pointing directly vertical. The aim is both to get more pace and to deliver it later so as to deceive the batsman in flight. It is usually recommended to deliver the ball with some inswing but an away-swinging yorker aimed at the pads can be just as effective. Because yorkers are quite difficult to bowl, the key to bowling them well is to practise the delivery time and time again.
