You need more information for this to be answered. ie. Legspin, offspin

In general though (right hander over the wicket bowling offspin) your front foot should be almost in line with the stump closest to you or even as far across as the middle stump to ensure good rotation of the body. When the ball is released from the hand it should come out spinning at an angle of 45 degrees. Remember to move to your left and off the pitch in your follow through so you don't impede the umpires view.
