From what I've seen, it doesn't really look there is a plan. It's literally just set the field, run in and bowl. No real plan on where the ball lands or what you are trying to achieve.

Looks very stock standard.

Mumba has a loaded off side field, but first ball in this over is leg side. Then he over corrects and gets punished for a 4. There has to be a plan and it has to be adjustable on the field.

I have a theory to Mumbas pace. It's all in his stride and run up. He runs in full steam but as he gets closer to the crease, he starts to lean back and take some smaller steps which causes him to lose pace in his run up and therefore lose control in his action. He needs to have his action flow through sort of as one motion and not two.
