first class cricketer off spinner and level 2 coach

Hi mate, well ,,If you send me some video or bowling action then i can guide you properly because all depend on your bowling action. I am not trying to say that you may have to change your action .You can bowl the doosre with chest on or side on because i do. I was,nt natural doosra bowler but you if you control your brain then can do .

If you bowl chest on then threre are some chances to bend your elbow and if you dont then the pace will be much slower.If you practice then can improve a lot.

If you you bowl side on then you have to maintain your balence from jump to follow through.Also you will finish your right leg away from pitch after relese.doosre..If you manage to balance then the ball will have good pace turn and bounce.
So all i gave you the concept of doosra. Now forget about all above.

First thing ,,you have to concentrate your off spin and get the right seem position.
I do one to one coaching in england because its much easier for me to teach you practically and face to face.

I played few first class games with saqlain mushtaq and we shared few ideas but the common thing we found was the grip which is not in the cricket coaching manual.He may not remember me now because is international great player..lol..
Any way don,t worry its not the rocket science.
We comming back to seem position get right so when your bowl off spin the your seem should routate very cleanly (with the angle towards fine leg) and should hit the seem.
When you will have the control on it then we move forward.
