Hi Archit,

Think about turning your wrist back more.  SO thin about it like you are trying to touch the back of your hand to your wrist.  This will straighten up your wrist and get the ball going straighter.

The other thing to do is focus on the curve on the ball and get the ball to go straight or even curve the other way by relaxing your wrist and experimenting with the angles.  Often this is a trail and error situation but a good way to learn.
