Hi Shikhar,

There are two things here.  One is to remain relaxed while you play.  This will allow your body to move more freely.  When we are tense the body muscles tighten up and aren't allowed to move in the way they would like to.

The second thing is to so some flexibility exercises during your general training time.  Just some simple stretches will help you to be and feel more flexible.
