Meaning
noun a cricket ball bowled as if to break one way that actually breaks in the opposite way
originUnknown; perhaps derived from googie (“an egg, in reference to the unusual direction of bounce”). Though the delivery was perfected and made famous by English cricketer Bernard Bosanquet, circa 1900, the term is recorded earlier in Australian English (1896).
