What is your best variation and how do you bowl it?
 
Say if you bowl pace or spin, i want to see how many we can get
 
 
mine is my slower ball. If i don't get wickets, you can always rely on it to do the buisness.
 
I'm 13 and my speed is about 70 mph, whereas i bowled my slower ball in the bowling machine and it was only 45mph, my coach he can't tell the difference in my action, does anyone else have this much luck with slower ball
 
I bowl it by splitting my fingers

If it actually comes out at 35mph then the batsman would have time to have lunch in between you bowling and them playing a shot. They would be able to get entirely through their shot and then get back to block it before it reached you. I'd have thought If you bowl about 70 mph(which would be impressive in itself at 13...) then itwould come out about 55mph ish with split fingers.

Since i dont really consider switching up between normal seam bowling, in and outswing, variation in my bowling the slower ball is my best (im a fast medium bowler) I just leave my wrist cocked back rather than flexing it through as i deliver, just enough change in pace to cause problems.

If you are 13 and you bowl 70mph then you must be the next Lee or something because that is quick! Also is 70mph or 70kph?

my best varations is when i spin the bowl i just use the fast bowl with less spin because the batter will just except it to turn and be slow. but the faster bowl always foxes them.

i am a leg spinner, i am of quite slow pace as i like to give it a bit of air. however i have a ball where i scratch my head before my normal run up to let the keeper know to move back. i then run up as normal but with a seamers grip and put my all into it aiming at the stumps. it comes out at a quick pace and normally goes towards the base of leg stump.

That is exactly how I bowl a faster ball but I am an off-spinner. I have the same run-up and i just bowl it quicker with a seam bowlers grip. I aim for a yorker and it really does help when I am bowling at the death of an innings.
