The Secret of Reverse Swing in the 10th Over

Lahore: How was the reverse swing in the 10th over? Wasim Akram kept the secret to himself.

Wasim Akram, speaking on New Zealand's 1993 series on former Indian cricketer Akash Chopra's YouTube channel, said that batsmen around the world did not know about reverse swing in the 90s.

At that time the ball would reverse swing in the 10th over, don't ask me but it used to be, I recently read an article that you should not spit whatever you want with the ball, someone should tell them to give the bottle cap as well, the bowlers will not get help unless the ball shines, if not spit. Each bowler must also be given a bottle of cream.

 He said that Martin Crowe scored 2 centuries in 3 Test matches of this series, at that time Meera and Waqar Younis were talking parrots, yet the Kiwi batsmen fought hard. When Martin Crowe retired, I asked him how he managed to play our bowling better. In response, he said that I used to come to the front foot and play only by understanding the swing. If you and Waqar were forced to do bouncers after getting good strokes, my job would have been easier.
