Sam Read (22), talented accomplished all-rounder from Devon, England.
With an impressive track record at both club and county levels. Representing Exeter Cricket Club in the Devon Premier Cricket League, Sam was a standout performer in the 2024 season, topping the charts for both batting and bowling. He amassed over 600 runs at an average of 46 and claimed 30 wickets at an average of 18, highlighting his versatility and impact.
Beyond club cricket, Sam’s prowess earned him a key role with Devon County Cricket Club in the NCCA Championship (3-Day) and Trophy (One-Day) competitions. Highlights included a match-winning 6/27 against Oxfordshire CCC and several half-centuries against Cheshire CCC and powerhouses, Berkshire CCC.
Sam is no stranger to success at the university level either, having represented Cardiff University’s UCCE squad during his time there. His contributions culminated in a 49 not out to secure victory in the BUCS Universities Final, closing out a remarkable summer with over 1,000 runs and 70 wickets across all teams.
Internationally, Sam gained valuable experience at just 18 when he attended the Darren Lehmann Cricket Academy in Adelaide. While there, he honed his skills with Prospect District Cricket Club, competing in their A Grade side.
Now, four years later, Sam is eager to return to Australia to further his development and challenge himself against top-level competition. He will be traveling with his girlfriend, requiring suitable accommodation, but his talent, work ethic, and team-first approach make him an invaluable addition to any club.
Sam Read brings a wealth of experience, skill, and passion both on and off the field and will undoubtedly be a sought-after player for the upcoming season.
