We might hear: cricketer Wesley denied spectacular bowling role, and relegated to a humbler one.

Hall-i'-th'-Wood
Afraid not. I confess to having zero interest in, and almost-zero knowledge of, cricket (don't know the names of any current players) -- your being aware that my clue was thought up by an utter non-cricket-buff, might possibly be a "pointer" in some way? Your "Hall-i'th'wood" effort attests, I feel, to erudition on your part which is completely off my radar !

Westerfield?
Correct -- imagined non-posh team captain or whatever, saying "Wes to/ter field" (no chance of covering self with glory as a bowler).

Yours to bowl a maiden over, or whatever those strange cricket folks say...
