Thats a commom problem with alot of people, their left hand isn't as flexible as the right. My best advice to you is to roll your wrists prior to practice, and after as well. That should be some help in the long run.

Doing wrist rotations bot clockwise and counter clockwise works well. It will take time for both of your wirists to become equally flexible, but it will come eventually. Try doing these wrist rotations a few times a day, and you will start seeing improvement.

To help with rist rotations i found that when i was practicing martial arts using a pair of nunchakus in my left hand and just rotating and spinning them helped me become more abidextirous also using some short sticks also helped so if you want maybe thing about taking up a martial art cause it almost forces u to use your non-dominant hand the same as u would your dominant. Doesnt necessarily have to be your left but if you have trouble w/ your right same techniques could apply.

my old stage combat instructor gave me a few good wrist stretches. If you turn your right hand so that theback of it is facing the palm of your left hand, then grab your right hand with your left with your thumb between your pinky and ring fingers then your index between thumb and index and the rest grasp around the base of the thumb, turn your right hand away from your chest then bring your arms to your sternum, then down to your belly button, then bring them straight out to shoulder level, do this likee three times and repeat with your other hand. Really helped me.
