This style of bowling is very uncommon, as it is a difficult style of bowling to master, and the natural "turn" into right-handed batsmen is usually less dangerous than the spin away from the batsman generated by a left-arm orthodox spin bowler. Very few specialist bowlers of this type have played at Test level: the South African Paul Adams, perhaps the most recent (although his technique is highly unorthodox in every sense of the word) and Michael Bevan[?] bowled this style as an all-rounder in the Australian team for periods in the 1990s.
