GLAMORGAN CRICKET CLUB’S DAVID LLOYD EXTENDS CONTRACT!

All-rounder David Lloyd extends contract

Glamorgan County Cricket Club are pleased to announce that all-rounder David Lloyd has signed a 2-year contract extension, which will keep him at the club until 2021.

A product of the Glamorgan Pathway system, Lloyd made his debut for the county in 2012 and has been a permanent fixture in the side ever since.  

During his career, the North Walian has amassed over 2,200 runs in First-Class cricket with four centuries and has taken over 50 wickets.

This season the 26-year-old struck a First-Class career-best 119 against Gloucestershire and followed it up a month later with 92 against Middlesex in the Royal London One-Day Cup – his career-best List A score.

After signing an extension with his home county, Lloyd, said:

“It’s obviously exciting and I’m immensely proud to extend my contract with Glamorgan.

“We’ve got a good core of young guys coming through and hopefully we can push on next year as a team and I looking forward to being a part of it.

“At 26 I’m now one of the senior players at the club and I want to kick on over the next few seasons and score plenty of runs and take plenty of wickets to win games for Glamorgan and Wales.”

Chief Executive, Hugh Morris, said:

“David has come through our Pathway system and has proudly represented his home county for several years.

“He is a proven performer across all three formats with both bat and ball and was having a strong campaign before injuries curtailed his season. Hopefully next year he puts his injuries behind him and can carry on improving and fulfil his undoubted talent.  

“As a club we are continuing to implement a strategy of developing our young players and giving them an opportunity to impress in the first team and David is a great example of that process. We are very pleased he is staying at Glamorgan.”
