question
Q: I’m 19 and bowl leg spin.
Sometimes I change where my front foot lands on the crease to add variety as the release point of the ball isn’t in the same spot all the time for the batter to get used to.
A bowling coach suggested “if you vary where you start your run up by 40cm and let your front foot land in the same position. That way the batter won’t pick up any subtle differences at the time I release the ball but the different angle in the run up will create the variety you’re looking for.”
He said the batter probably won’t pick up on the different starting point of your run up.
Is this good advice? I’d like to get some other opinions.
