By far the biggest reason for me practicing fielding is because I don’t want to be “that guy” that drops catches.
I hate it off my own bowling, I don’t want to do it off someone else’s.
Also having stickybeaked enough selection meetings, fielding and fitness absolutely comes into play. My club...
I also like using my crease and bowling the odd ball a bit wider.
I reckon in a 2 day match or even a slow paced one dayer I could chuck someone under the lid and get some catches off my top spinner.
I recently slightly injured a ligament in the back of my knee. It’s not serious and it’s already 90% healed. But I haven’t been bowling pace because it’s my back leg and I still have some weakness.
I’ve been bowling leg spin and getting plenty of turn and bounce on our club nets that...
Also noticing from this CA XI match he seems to be really good at rotating strike, he’s going at a SR of 47 but the only boundary he’s hit for 27 overs was a single outside edge.
Infamously poor at converting 50s into 100s. But honestly if our opener can make a 90 every game that’s perfectly fine by me [emoji23].

Really like that he’s in the squad. I’m not sure about actually being in the XI (if he does at any point).
But having an attacking middle order bat that bowls decent left arm offies is an amazing thing to have in your team.
