Thanks for asking
Well I tried to stay upright, but I feel like I was being like too extra with it, like literally trying to be perfectly straight. So I'm kinda trying to get an in between. I'm trying to run through the follow throw more though.
You're welcome
Nice that you're working on your bowling technique.
Just make sure you don't over do it.
Otherwise you will turn into Indian pacer.
Be natural and aggressive.
Instead of your action now, focus on where the ball goes.
Practice line and length.
Bowl bouncer after bouncer. Hitting the batsman's head with every ball.
If you are playing alone, just imagine a guy batting and where his head is. Also do off/middle stump bouncer. This is also effective.
Keep doing this and you will have a lethal bouncer.
Bowl yorker after yorker. Put two rocks as the batsman's feet and keep hitting them. Break the damn rocks with those yorkers. Keep your line at the stumps, but also practice the wide yorker too.
Keep doing this and you will have a toe crushing yorker.
Have a full fast pace delivery up your sleeve at all times. When practicing, just bowl around 5 straight deliveries at full pace. Line should be from between fourth and middle stump and length not too full and not too short. Now these are your only fast balls. Other balls can be fast, but these are your fastest balls. Make sure you vary your pace. Have three gears. Slow ball, regular pace, and fast ball.
As for variations, they are plenty to work on. Get an off-cutter, leg-cutter and back of the hand slower ball. Your regular slow ball should just be by rolling the fingers over the ball. Practice that. Don't change arm-speed for slow ball otherwise batsman will know. Even try knuckle-ball if you want, look at Andrew Tye's video and how he gives it. Slow ball is important.
These things I am telling you because regardless of which ball you are using or which pitch you are playing on, they will always be effective. Swing depends on the condition of ball, but I'm sure you already know how to do that.
I just fear you are working too much on the action. Keep working on it slowly, no major changes. Mostly work on line and length, pace, and variations.
