Tom Kohler-Cadmore (born 19 August 1994) is an English professional cricketer who plays for Somerset. He is a right-handed batsman who also bowls right-arm off spin.[2]

Biography

Having come through the Yorkshire age-group system,[3] Kohler-Cadmore left to complete his education at Malvern College where he was named 2014 Young Wisden Schools Cricketer of the Year.[4] After leaving Malvern College, Kohler-Cadmore made his debut for Worcestershire in August 2013 against a touring Bangladesh A side.[5] On 20 May 2016, at the age of 21, Kohler-Cadmore scored 127 runs from 54 balls for Worcestershire against Durham in the 2016 NatWest t20 Blast. It was the highest individual total for a Worcestershire player in a Twenty20 match.[6]

In June 2017, Yorkshire announced that Kohler-Cadmore had signed a contract of an undisclosed length to rejoin them ahead of the 2018 season.[7] On 8 June 2017, Worcestershire announced that they had mutually agreed to terminate his contract to allow him to immediately join Yorkshire.[8] He had been left out of the previous match.

In May 2019, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) withdrew Kohler-Cadmore from the England Lions' squad, after he'd been named during Alex Hepburn's rape trial.[9] Hepburn was found guilty of rape, and although the judge said that Kohler-Cadmore "did nothing wrong",[9] the ECB were concerned about the disrespectful messages about women that had been exchanged.[9]

On 29 May 2020, Kohler-Cadmore was named in a 55-man group of players to begin training ahead of international fixtures starting in England following the COVID-19 pandemic.[10] [11]

On 1 December 2021, Kohler-Cadmore made the highest individual score in T10 history, scoring 96 off just 39 balls against Bangla Tigers in the Abu Dhabi T10 League.[12] In April 2022, he was bought by the Trent Rockets for the 2022 season of The Hundred.[13]

On 20 June 2022, Kohler-Cadmore agreed a three-year contract with Somerset County Cricket Club ahead of the 2023 season.[14]
