[edit] "Back of the hand"

What does that actually mean? To me, the back of my hand is the oposite side to my palm. There also isn't a front of the hand for it to be clear exactly where the back of the hand is. Ian 20:28, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

I've edited to clarify this a bit more. -dmmaus 23:15, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "seam parallel to the palm"

What does that mean? I can think of three interpretations off the top of my head. Maw 18:09, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wider use

What about this?

Sometimes the name googly is used to refer to any ball which breaks in the unexpected way for the particular bowler, i.e., an orthodox right-arm wrist spinner's leg break as well as a leg spinner's off break, and similarly for left-arm bowlers.^[1][2]
