I personally think that a slightly angled approach is the best for wristies. Shane Warne, Imran tahir, Stuart McGill, Brad Hogg all seem to prefer an angled approach. I start my run-up just outside the return crease, angle in and bowl from the middle of the crease. When you take an angled run-up its also important to 'chase the ball' in your follow through as Peter Philpott stresses in his book. I have had great success with this approach as my body alignment is perfect and my spin spin and drift is maximized as a result. I have tried a few times to adopt a straighter approach which didn't turn out right because my action got slightly open chested and i started pushing the ball and as a result lost all the spin and drift. Have any of you tried or had success with this approach?
