Explanation

The flipper is a leg spin delivery bowled with under-spin (backspin), causing it to bounce lower than normal after pitching. It was invented by the Australian leg-spinner Clarrie Grimmett. The under-spin makes the ball stay low, often catching the batsman by surprise and potentially bowling them or trapping them lbw.
