Thankyou :)

Hi guys, Long time no speak, I havent been on here for a while. You may remember that towards the end of last season, I was relieved of my bowling duties and was picked in the team as an opening batsman. I was told that I wouldnt be bowling and honestly, we didnt put enough on with the bat to...

Hi Guys. I have been inactive over the last few weeks but over winter nets I have seem to find an action that consistently works for me. I am getting a great amount of spin and I am also consistently accurate with my line and length. The only issue, which always has been an issue for me is...

Enjoying the novelty of being 18!

That's great! Thankyou very much :)

I understand what you mean, this is really just trying to show later release, as I havent got my full run up in the video! Next time I will try and get something marked out! Until you said, I didnt realise this sort of thing could be bad for me!

Wow how embarassing! There you go mate!

30 second video of my bowling, all looking positive at the moment, let me know what you think! @GoldenArm @someblokecalleddave @Cleanprophet Scroll down for link!

By 60 degree angle do you mean my bowling arm height? And yep, It isn't slipping and is spinning more than I used to! So if that works when I get down to nets, thats what I will stick with, and I do think it will work, I have been doing this for a couple of weeks now and I havent found a fault...

@Cleanprophet this is a recent side on video of my action with my later release, It is still earlier than I thought it was, but I am getting good spin and its accurate, and the ball isnt slipping out. What do you think? I apologise about the size I videod it on my phone! Recommend going to...

Would you still say that your shoulder is quite upright compared to Warne's? I think that I should be upright shoulder with just a little bit of a lower arm? Similar to this position, however, just a slightly later release and leaning over? https://gyazo.com/baa270352d9efcda730d5c9d1ca91120...

I was thinking that he must have worked on something because when I have seen him before he hasn't turned the ball massively, like he does now.

That would have been great! I loved how he was bowling with pure sidespin or the "the big leg break" every ball, loved he was really ripping it and not scared to drag it down. I also imagine he would have a good slider, if he did bowl it because of his side spin and late release.

Did anyone see Amit Mishra bowling today? Really ripping it!

This is the thing that I am thinking, I chop and change so often and I think it is about time that I stick with something that works, and the last two times it has worked. I know it is only the beginning and there will be setbacks but I just need to stick with it, and like you said, beauty of...

Today at lunch in school I went into the sports hall and bowled 2 overs with my new lower-ish arm and also the later release, I can definitely say it is on the way up, I had a loose grip and was producing genuine leg spinners, where I could feel my finger dragging over the ball and it really...

This is one thing I will be looking at, the pressure of my grip. Then walking in, leaning forward and releasing later, and I am hoping to not over analyse things and hopefully everything else will fall into place.

@Cleanprophet would you say that me leaning forward more in my action, means a lower shoulder? Because leaning forward improves my bowling massively, however, I know we discussed earlier about sturggling to get out a leggie with a low shoulder? Is leaning forward, like Smith, over the front foot...

Good advice. I agree about the googly situation, with me developing that early, it has made my release all my deliveries early. I know this is only early days but I bowled about 20 balls earlier before it got dark on the driveway from a standing start, practicing leaning towards the batsman and...
