Play everything, log everything
Club games, school fixtures, weekend tournaments — they all count if they're recorded. A profile with 30 verified matches tells a far better story than one with three great ones and a gap.
Let the trend do the talking
Selectors look for direction, not peaks. A batting average that climbs across three seasons, an economy rate that drops as the level rises — those curves are more persuasive than any single score.
- Track form over rolling 5 and 10 match windows
- Note the level of opposition, not just the result
- Keep availability and fitness records honest
Pair numbers with 60 seconds of video
A short, well-chosen clip answers questions numbers can't: technique, temperament, movement. Attach it to the match it belongs to so it's evidence, not marketing.

Complete your profile — position, age group, city, contact. Scouts filter before they browse. An incomplete profile is invisible no matter how good the season behind it was.
