Pace Bowling Problem

I am a left arm pace bowler and I have a problem that when I get to the crease I jump to the left as I bowl.

To me it seems like I'm going straight but from what people have seen and from what I have seen in some video footage I am doing it. Obviously it is a habit but I was wondering what techniques I can use to get myself into the habit of going straight.

It isnt preventing me from being accurate but it is causing my front leg to be bent as I bowl, preventing me using my height off the pitch and preventing me to be faster and bowl a good bouncer.

If it helps I could get some home made video footage in the next few days, but it wont be of very good quality.

Ill do almost anything to correct this problem as im only 16 and want to continue to go up the levels.

Here is a diagram of what I am doing if you didnt understand what I wrote above.

Sorry, change left to right and right to left in my diagram as I am a left hander. Sorry for the mistake!
 
Re: Pace Bowling Problem

A video would help mm. The biomechanical malfunction could originate from various phases and I would need to see your full run up and delivery to be sure where the correction is needed.
