Well, you would be a quick spinner. With that run up, nothing more can be said.

Need a video with a proper run up.

You should consider being a spinner, that action plus any spin that you receive from the pitch will really confuse the batsman.

Check your landing , don't be wrong footed. It can hurt your knees and you should be able to see where are you going to pitch the ball.

I think it's a rather effective bowling action and surprised with the pace being generated with that action using (I assume) tape ball.

There was guy in my school team who had similar action (but also a massive run-up) and generated plenty of pace (this using the proper cricket ball), he was a handful with his pace for the opposition.

I have never seen another 15 year old quicker than this guy to date, alas he had no interest in pursing a career in cricket and is now doing an MBA in the US!

But I am no bowling expert, but it would more helpful to see the full monty with a batsman facing with your proper run-up.

A right-handed Sohail Tanvir. Speed can't be judged by that video though.

Nice bowling yaar with good pace. Just work on it, you have plenty of time. Introduce a run up by slowing your pace. Once you gain a bit of rythm then just notch it up to your normal speed.

I think by bringing in your left arm into play a bit more, it might help your balance and accuracy.

You do not look at the batsman while delivering the ball.

That is a very weird action. Looks like you have a chimp on your back and you are trying to rid of it with a big shoulder jerk.

With that action, if the batsman is giving you charge, you would never know.

Speed is alright considering you are 13 or 14(?).

Weird looking action. I personally think that it might end up hurting your rotator cuff because you bring your arm down very forcefully and in an unnatural/jerky fashion. Might want to pay attention to that..but otherwise I guess the pace looks good. And wheres the run up lol

Well its a little but wild but not everybody is blessed with a quick arm action so there's a positive. If you could get a video with a run up i could make a better assessment.

You need to have a run-up first dude. The speed might be good if you take a proper run-up and also you need to have a proper action, the one you are having right now is kinda weird.
