Effect of sandpaper on a cricket Ball

What Effect Does Sandpaper Have On A Cricket Ball? Here’s All You know about this:-




Australian cricketers Steve Smith, David Warner and Cameron Bancroft landed themselves in huge trouble after they got involved in ball tampering.

Bancroft was caught by cameras as he used a sandpaper to work on the ball.
After Smith admitted that they were indeed part of the illegal activity, he and Warner both received a 12-month ban from Australian Cricket. On the other hand, Bancroft received a 9 months ban.

Soon after the incident, the ball tampering issue became a hot topic. There are some people who are aware of what ball tampering really is, but there’s a huge section of the public who don’t know anything apart from the fact that ball tampering is illegal. Everyone saw Bancroft using sandpaper to tamper the ball, but no one knows how sandpaper affects the ball.

Here’s how a sandpaper affects the ball




One thing that you need to know first is bowlers tamper the ball to get reverse swing. In natural cases, it’s not always easy to get the reverse swing. When the ball gets old and it has a relatively shinier side, it moves towards that side. But that’s something that doesn’t work on bowlers side so they want to work on it.

LET’S TALK ABOUT SWING
You’ve no doubt seen players rubbing the ball furiously on their trousers for years. They will always rub the same side of the ball on their pants in an effort to make half of it shiny, while one side is neglected so it remains rough.
 This is when they rub sandpaper on it   because it helps to rough up the other   side of the ball and helps the bowler in   reverse swing.

Have a look at two cases-

Impact of Sandpaper of Ball



Sandpaper has a pretty damaging impact on the ball. When you rub it on the ball it gives instant results and rough up the ball very soon which in turn helps in reverse swing

Impact of Sticky Tape

Sticky Tape and dirt is also used to do ball tampering but it doesn’t impact the ball that much. The results are not fast as it has less damaging impact on the ball. In fact, Bancroft had earlier said that he used Sticky Tape for ball tampering. However he later accepted that he lied and he actually used sandpaper.

Is ball-tampering easy to get away with?

I think Australia were deluded. It is almost impossible to get away with any of this in international cricket now.
There are 30 cameras watching you and umpires regularly inspecting the ball.
There's always been skulduggery in 
cricket but it's always had this status as a sport where people behave well and respect each other.

Indian Caste System : Shaping the Occupations and Society Introduction:-                            The Indian Caste System is historically one of the major dimensions where people in india are socially differentiated through class , religion , region, tribe, gender, and language. The Indian Caste System is considered a closed system of stratification , which means that a person's social status is obligated to which caste they were born into. There are limits on interaction and behaviour with people from another social status. Caste Structure:-                                  Defining the word "caste" itself is harder than thought to be. Risley defines it as "a collection of families or groups of families bearing a common name; claiming a common descent from a mythical ancestor, human or divine, professing to follow the same ...
