Your bowling and variations

What do you bowl and what are your variations?
I bowl offspin, legspin and medium pace.

Offspin variations: Offbreak, top spinner, armball, carrom ball

Legspin variations: legbreak, slider, wrong un

Medium pace: Outswinger, offcutter, slowerball

I am a medium fast bowler and my stock ball is an outswinger, but if I put three fingers on the seam (instead of two) then the seam is automatically released for an inswinger.

I also have two different types of slower ones; 1) I let it slip out through the gap between my thumb and index finger, and 2) a knuckle ball

I have tons of fun with the knuckle ball, it zig-zags like snake and makes batsmen look foolish.

Basically, my grip and run up is the same, but instead of spinning the ball with my index finger, I flick my ring finger which spins it the wrong way, I make sure I keep my wrist straight, cause if you bend it slightly, it will make it look like a leg spinner, also I don't change where I pitch the ball all that much so it makes it difficult for the batsmen to pitch it, I like the set up of 3 offies, then a carrom ball that pitches in the same place as the offies

I USE to bowl fast medium then medium fast but coul swing it a little when I slowed my pace down.
My biggest problem was banging it in too short.

i can bowl the doosra, but it comes out much slower than my offspinner. plus, my orthadox legbreak turns the wrong way... which makes it a googly, yet i simply have no idea how im bowling it!
