He brings the keeper and the slips into play.
And he believes it makes his in-swinger to the right-hander more of a surprise.
So he feels that it's just added another weapon to his repertoire.
So, you know, for a player at age 34, 35 to continually try and striving to get better and improve, I think is fantastic.

What we are seeing is that it can be done in Australia if you practice it.
How long do you have to practice it for to perfect it, do you think?
Oh, look, bowls will improve and get it right at different rates.
But Mitchell Stark said he's been working on it over a period of time.
