Southampton test erased swing doubts, says ball-maker

The ball moved enough in last week's Southampton test between England and West Indies to erase any lingering doubt about swing bowling under cricket's COVID-19 protocols, manufacturer of the Dukes ball told Reuters.REUTERS: The ball moved enough in last week's Southampton test between England and West Indies to erase any lingering doubt about swing bowling under cricket's COVID-19 protocols, manufacturer of the Dukes ball told Reuters.

"When you flick your wrist, there are so many things that apply to swing. Not just anybody can run up and swing a ball. There are swing bowlers and there are fast bowlers. "Likewise, Shannon Gabriel is not a swing bowler either. For them, Jason Holder swings the ball and he was moving it."Holder claimed a career-best 6-42 in the first innings as West Indies went on to prevail by four wickets to go 1-0 up in the three-test series.
