The Ideal Run Up
A smooth rhythmic approach towards the stumps gaining momentum all the time. A 20 step run up is advisable and around 6 to 7 steps for a spinner. Ideal position to start the run up is shown here . Start on the left foot with weight forward and eyes focused on the target. As you get into the last jump, transform your open chested approach into a side on action.

Its Simple:
The run up of all bowlers vary,but remember one thing the RHYTHM should be the goal. A good rhythmic run-up increases the pace of a fast bowler, and enhances slow bowler’s ability to spin the ball. A well-balanced & good approach to the stumps helps the bowler to gain consistency in line & length for a longer period of time without getting tired. Balance and rhythm are the two important things to concentrate on.
