Playing cricket: Physicists cast new light on spin-bowling As the Ashes series gets underway next week, a pair of brothers from Australia have been exploring the physics behind the spin of a cricket ball. While physicists are much more accustomed to measuring the spin of electrons, protons and neutrons, physicists have now presented equations that govern the trajectory of a spinning ball as it moves through the air in the presence of a wind.
