Has anyone else noticed that in cricket, being described as 'wristy' is a euphemism for being of Asian origin, and that you must automatically play spin well?
A great example from Cricinfo

Jonty is right, Hamla (I like to combine first initials with last names) is much 'wristier' than the others (closest one to him in wristiness is probably Ashwell Prince, but not really). He is also unlike any other SA batsman, probably because he is the first test batsman of Indian origin.
I'm sure Jonty has lots of wristy friends though.
I'll pick up some more examples later
