Hi Somshekar,
The key is to use your bat like a rudder. If the ball is going off to the left, then you need to face your bat to the right and vice versa. Don't try to do too much with the ball.
The other important thing is to understand the basics of spin. We have a course designed for this. Take a look at what is available in Receiving Secrets.
