When Waqar Yunus was head coach of Pakistan he never thought art of reverse swing to any new comer including when he was captain of Pakistan he always hided art of reverse swing with younger players like Mohammad Sami who is still the fastest bowler in Pakistan but lakes the ability in art of reverse swing all yesteryears bowlers specially Waqar and Wasim Akram gave nothing to younger Pakistan bowler and legendary Sarfaraz Nawaz was the only real patriot Pakistani player who pass on the art of reverse swing to Imran Khan who was only kind with Wasim Akram and thought him reverse swing. In fact Waqar and Wasim are the main culprint that before leaving Pakistan cricket they did not groomed Shoaikb Akhtar/Mohammad Sami for Pakistan. If people want to learn more about Shoaib Akhtar's plight in his early days in carrier they can read his autobiograpby in which he has narrated how Wasim Akram has spoiled his life. PCB WAKE UP BEFORE RETRING GUL/SAMI GROOM NEW BOWLERS FOR GLORY OF PAKISTAN

I'm pretty certain that it is the polished side that moves faster through the air and as a result moves away from this side – the rougher side is on the inside of the swing curve. Unless I am a pioneer of reverse reverse swing that is.
I used to enjoy Graham Gooch's "right arm slow" deliveries that bent a fair bit and seemed to regularly baffle batsmen.

Dave,
So it was traditional 'in-swing' but with tampering it swung more and became 'reverse-swing'. Glad to get back to morality and bowling tradition of the more difficult art of in-swing.

Even with poorer cameras, they picked up your Lillee"s tripping of Miandad and the much smaller man going after the big bully Lillee, the Ausies had to apologize for it or is your memory too short or narrow about how Austrailia has behaved in the cricket world, I think you are just envious of us because you cannot produce bowlers of this quality ! keep working hard and pray that you will get it, but I doubt it
