Nadeem Moosa was a decent left arm spinner who played
29 first class matches from 1983-87. He had modest returns in his career, but was considered a legend of street cricket. This was primarily due to the "finger" grip that he possessed, not unlike the carom ball.
The ball was held between a bent middle finger and thumb, with the index finger as loose support. The ball is then flicked out, with the spin imparted from the quick flick out of middle finger and thumb. To nullify the threat of Moosa, an innovation was done which led to something that is now associated with the particular region.
This is one of the many stories about the origin of what?

This structure served initially only as a memorial, but a
water fountain was added making it a public utility. It has always been associated with the ground, being installed in 1882. It was moved slightly outside the ground in 1917 and almost immediately its vandalisation started. It was considered beyond repair by the 1960’s.
The city council decided to restore it in 2003 and move it to the Parliament, but historians showed photographs of when the monument was inside the ground. On the basis of this evidence, they decided to move the restored structure back to the ground and it is currently only 10m away from its original location.

He has played many important innings and daddy centuries, but
to him his most important innings was a 57 on a cold day in Manchester.
Overnight rain had ensured that the green pitch had freshened up making batting difficult. Also the cold and strong winds bothered him.
He made it difficult for himself because of a superstition. He did not use X during his first tour, which was a historic win for his side. He did not use X during the first test of the tour which ended in a draw. He decided to continue to do so in Manchester.
"Never during the inter-school and even during the inter-varsity matches, some of which were played in the winters. So it was part superstition and partly the fact that I had never batted using X.“
Who rated this 57 as his best innings? What was the superstition that he followed at that time, which did not continue for long?

Victoria hadn’t won the domestic ODI title in over 15 years.
At the start of the 1994-95 tournament, they brought out an innovation which divided their supporters.
“Troy Corbett doesn't look too bad, but the sight of Merv Hughes' legs pumping away by the boundary rather uncomfortably brought to mind the window of a butcher's shop.” ~as per a blog on Australian cricket.
The embarrassment probably galvanized the team and they won their first ODI title. The innovation was not seen afterwards.
What innovation was seen this season which thankfully was brief?
