Definition
A 'bosie ball' is simply another way of referring to a 'bosie' or 'googly' in cricket. It denotes the specific delivery bowled by a leg-spin bowler that deceives the batsman by spinning in the opposite direction to what is anticipated. Think of it like calling a convertible car a 'drop top' 🚗. It's just a different term for the same thing. While 'bosie' might be less common than 'googly,' 'bosie ball' emphasizes the ball itself as the agent of deception. It remains part of cricketing vocabulary.
