In cricket, can the bowler legally bowl a ball that doesn bounce?
Guest7980 the ball doesnt have to bounce as long as its waist hight, or what you would call a full toss. you can also bowl a ball under arm if you dont already know. Report (0) (0) | earlier Guest6047 It does not have too bounce at all, after all a Yorker is aimed at the base of the stumps. If a ball double bounces it is a no ball and the ball must be below shoulder height when it reaches the batsman.

I recall a certain fast bowler, now long retired, who would bowl some horrendous bouncers that whistled past the batsman's nose, then when he judged the batsman sufficiently intimidated he'd hurl a high-speed full toss down and the batsman would instinctively step out
