BATSMAN Tom Kohler-Cadmore might have to rein in his attacking instincts in a bid to score more runs for Worcestershire.

Reflecting on last season, the hard-hitting former Malvern College pupil says it was “all or nothing” when he was at the crease.

Kohler-Cadmore hammered the fastest century of last season off just 43 balls against Durham Jets in last May and reached 127 from 54 balls.

The 22-year-old wants to have a more concise game-plan in his mind as he strives to be more consistent with the bat.

“I think it was a season of two halves for me in 2016,” recalled Kohler-Cadmore.

“It started off really well and then towards the end of the season I did terribly.

“I felt I was in good form with the red-ball stuff as well as the T20 stuff and I got to half-way in the season in both forms and then went downhill.

“My main problem was that I didn’t get many 20s, 30s and 40s.

"It was all or nothing. I had four hundreds and then I finished with the season with four noughts.

“I was either on fire or not in the team and it was quite frustrating for me.

“The one thing I really want to do this summer is to improve my consistency.

“I think it’s important to have a good game-plan and being patient early doors.

“I will sometimes play a rash shot and I think you have to learn from that and become more aware of your lower and higher risk shots.

“As long as I keep improving and not making the same mistakes I will be happy.”

Kohler-Cadmore hit his first century in a non-first-class game against Cambridge MCCU and then made 99 against Leicestershire in July 2014.

His maiden first-class century came in the final game of the 2015 season against Middlesex at New Road.

He hit further first-class hundreds followed last term, including a career-best 169 against Gloucestershire.

“I see myself batting at five or six in the red ball game,” he said.

“I still want to be opening the batting in white-ball cricket because that’s where I think I can play my best and be at my most destructive.”
