James Barwick (22) is an off-spin bowling all-rounder from Hertfordshire, England.

Currently captaining Old Albanian Cricket Club in the Hertfordshire Premier Cricket League. Barwick, was appointed First XI Captain at just 20 years old, Barwick became the youngest in the club’s history to take on the role. A testament to his cricketing intelligence, maturity, and leadership qualities. Under his captaincy, the club secured promotion in 2024, and they are currently on course for back-to-back promotions in 2025, with James continuing to lead by example.

Last season, he delivered a standout all-round performance, 21 wickets at an average of 12.14 and an economy of 3.1, alongside 274 runs at 27.4. In 2025, he’s picked up 11 wickets at 13.8 with an economy of just 3.2, demonstrating his continued consistency and threat with the ball.

A product of the Hertfordshire County Cricket Club Pathway system (U13–U18), where he captained in the later years, James also featured prominently for St Albans School’s 1st XI, winning Bowler of the Year (2022). Additionally, he represented Ealing CC (U16–U21), gaining strong experience in London’s competitive circuit.

A tall off-spinner who extracts sharp turn and bounce, Barwick relies on top spin and subtle variations to outwit batters. His arsenal includes a well-disguised arm ball, making him a dangerous option, especially in powerplays, where he’s often trusted to open the bowling in T20 formats. With the bat, he is a clever manipulator of the field, capable of rotating strike in the middle overs and accelerating when needed.

Now seeking to expand his cricketing horizons, James is eyeing a 2025/26 season in Australia. He’s eager to immerse himself in a new club culture, contribute both on and off the field, and is particularly keen to assist with junior coaching and club development.

A committed cricketer with leadership credentials, quality off-spin, and a team-first mindset—James Barwick is an ideal overseas signing for any club looking to strengthen its squad and culture.
