I am a bit old now, but have bowled fast yorkers all my life. That said, if I was bowling at an Indian, I would probably throw in several quick beamers/head hunters Nothing more delightful that some chin music?

i bowl offspin, my variations are flighted with more spin, a slightly faster offy. Also, a topspinner, a straight one, a faster straight one (no disguise), and one that goes the other way a little bit (poorly disguised).

Attempt to get it somewhere near the wickets at not a very quick pace but with swing. Never played properly or got taught but my mates couldnt handle me and my swing.

I tried to develop a doosra, it's simply impossible to bowl for me without bending my arm, or making it look like a leggie, so I developed a well disguised carrom ball

I am a medium fast bowler and my stock ball is an outswinger, but if I put three fingers on the seam (instead of two) then the seam is automatically released for an inswinger.

I also have two different types of slower ones; 1) I let it slip out through the gap between my thumb and index finger, and 2) a knuckle ball

I have tons of fun with the knuckle ball, it zig-zags like snake and makes batsmen look foolish.

Basically, my grip and run up is the same, but instead of spinning the ball with my index finger, I flick my ring finger which spins it the wrong way, I make sure I keep my wrist straight, cause if you bend it slightly, it will make it look like a leg spinner, also I don't change where I pitch the ball all that much so it makes it difficult for the batsmen to pitch it, I like the set up of 3 offies, then a carrom ball that pitches in the same place as the offies

I USE to bowl fast medium then medium fast but coul swing it a little when I slowed my pace down.
My biggest problem was banging it in too short.

i can bowl the doosra, but it comes out much slower than my offspinner. plus, my orthadox legbreak turns the wrong way... which makes it a googly, yet i simply have no idea how im bowling it!
