Shropshire have strengthened their squad ahead of the new National Counties Cricket Association season by making four new signings, including top order batter Tom Fell who left Worcestershire at the end of last season.
Former Worcestershire and England under-19 opener Ollie Westbury, who played for Shropshire earlier in his career, experienced seamer Andy Sutton and top order batter James Middleton have also joined.
He has also hit 1,541 runs in 52 List A matches at an average of 33.50, with his highest score an unbeaten 116 against Lancashire in 2016. He played for Shropshire earlier in his career and scored a NCCA Championship century against the county for Cornwall in 2021. Shropshire’s head of cricket Home said: “I’m very excited that Tom Fell, who actually played junior cricket for Shropshire at under-10s level and has family in the county, has signed and it’s nice to have him involved.
“Andy Sutton took more wickets than anybody in the Birmingham League last year. His bowling expertise is obviously what everybody will focus on and he’s been very successful over a number of years.
