Having made his ODI debut against Bangladesh late in 2016, Ball’s entry into ODI cricket hasn’t been a smooth ride so far.

Despite being among the wickets for his team in 2017, the towering pacer remains immensely inconsistent and sprays his lines all over the surface. With an economy rate of 6.25 and an average of 42.52 after 16 games, one can make out that the 26-year old needs to improve a big time for England to excel further.

Ball endured a disastrous outing in 2017 against the Windies in the fifth and final ODI of the series at Southampton, as the Calypso Kings tore him apart. With the Windies posting 288 in their 50 overs, 94 of those were sourced from the bowling of Jake Ball, as the top-order, in particular, took a liking for the pacer.
