Have a good follow through. I am a fast bowler and I understand the problem a bit. Try keeping a straight arm like your friends told you. Run-up is important so keep it staight. If you are going at an angle it will be tough to control where the ball is going. Its needs a lot of practice. Try and restict your line to between middle and a little outside off stump and don't let the ball stray down the leg side unless your havin some kind of a plan in mind and need to bowl there or if a left handed batsman is batting.

hey..i am new to this forum..but not to bowling..first thing is not to get panicky about it..then find the rythm (very important ) and yeah straighten ur run up a little (maybe that could help)..and slowly always examine ur action in nets or at home and u can work on it..

If I am spraying them all over the place I find it really helps when I concentrate on keeping my leading arm (my left arm are in my case because I'm a right arm bowler) very high and looking over my shoulder. This stops me falling away in the delivery stride which I agree is a big factor in controlling the ball.

You could be falling away in the delivery stride lad , sometimes caused by tiredness.
