Why do you hold your arm in close to your chest in the 2nd video? Don't see any real point in doing that...

 

[Aditya]

Your action is good jakie but dont tkae your arm close to your chest try to have some space and your running is smooth make it bit hard like come jumping you can take lee as example.

 

[Jakester1288]

I don't know, it's just a habit that started when I started bowling. So I should pull it to my side to build up speed and momentum in my run up?

 

[Aditya]

Best advice from me will be see some clips of broad and lee there run-up is quite smooth if you dont thing there action are suiting you lilee is best for you check his action or kapil dev action clips.

Aditya:Please don't make him watch other videos and tell him to try their action....It may ruin his game...

@Jake:Get your body weight a little ahead while you're bowling and with your physique..You've got an almost perfect physique for fast bowler seeing your age...And your action's really smooth..

 

[Jakester1288]

I think I need to work on straightening my front leg a little more, and bending the back leg just beside it, to transfer my run up momentum into the delivery better.

Any critizm for my bowling?

 

[shubhrayu]

Hmm...your bowling is a bit of Hilfenhaus type...I think you should follow your natural action and let your coach develope that....

 

[Covvy]

Jake looks like those type of bowlers that have a super mean approach then bowl crap (hopefully it's not like that for you)

 

[shubhrayu]

He's a bit of Stuart Broad type...I mean Jake's Action

Maybe it can riun his game but maybe it can make his game perfect i will always suggest see some videos i am not saying copy those bowler's action just try to see their action and foot moment's because player like lilee imran khan kapil dev and ian botham action was very very smooth.

You dont necessary have to follow great player`s actions Aditya, you want Jake to use a bowling style that`s comfortable and effective for him. Just because those bowlers are great doesnt necessarily make their actions suitable for every player.

 

[Aditya]

I am not saying copy their action i am saying copy their run up or try to see their run-up it can give you an idea of dream run-up you want.

Jake I reckon if you pump your left arm you could get a bit more speed and then height in your jump.
