Left-arm orthodox spin is a type of bowling in the sport of cricket. Left-arm orthodox spin is bowled by a left arm bowler using the fingers to spin the ball from right to left of the cricket pitch. Left arm spin bowlers generally attempt to drift the ball in the air into a right handed batsman, making it drift on the air and spining away from the batsman upon landing on the pitch. The drift and turn in the air are attacking techniques. The major variations of a left arm spinner are the topspinner (which turns less and bounces higher or lower in the cricket pitch), the arm ball (which doesn't turn at all, drifts into a right handed batsman in the direction of the bowlers arm movement, called a 'floater'.) and the left-arm spinner's version of a doosra (which turns the other way). The left-arm unorthodox spin like a leg break or Leg spin is also a bowling action.
