[sual1234567890]

i am 6 1 and i have a straight action i.e not slingy. i bend my body too much that people say dont break your back and iam flexible and i can touch my fingers to the hand backwards. but iam not able to generate much speed and also my foot dosent land straight it goes to the left while landing.iam a right arm bowler! any tips? And suggest me best suited action for me as i want to change it,iam tall.

make sure your action is as high as possible. Speed doesn't matter too much if you are accurate, so mark out a square on a good length just outside off stump and just practice hitting that, and your action should start to mould itself. Once you've got that down pat start trying to bowl faster bit by bit and still hit that spot.

Or you could do what I did and realise you're a rubbish fast bowler and turn to spin. I'm 6'4"

Being a tall spinner is very useful. I think it's very important, whatever you bowl, to have a consistent stock delivery that you can land in the same place five out of six times. If you can do that, then develop one other delivery - maybe a cross-seamer that doesn't swing, or an arm ball if you're bowling offies, but don't worry about being a world-beater. Bore the batsman out if necessary.
