Dan Lawrence

Lawrence put in a man-of-the-match performance as the England Lions wrapped up a series win against a Cricket Australia XI in February 2020. He finished with 4-28, following a quickfire 50 not out in the first match of the series.

Lawrence made his first-class debut for Essex against Kent in April 2015. At the age of 17 years and 290 days, and in only his second first-class appearance, Lawrence made a century against Surrey becoming the third youngest batsmen to score a century in the County Championship. Lawrence's batting was instrumental in helping Essex win promotion to the County Championship First Division, and in their first season back in the upper division, to win the Championship in 2017. In 2017 was named the Cricket Writers' Club Young Cricketer of the Year, and made his debut for England Lions. Summer 2018 proved something of a disappointment and so he was unable to further press for a place in the England test team.

In December 2015 he was named in England's squad for the 2016 Under-19 Cricket World Cup. In the first match of the tournament, Lawrence scored a match-winning 174 runs off 150 balls against Fiji, the highest score by an English batsman in a youth ODI.

Daniel William Lawrence (born 12 July 1997) is an English cricketer who plays for Essex County Cricket Club. Primarily a right-handed batsman, he also bowls right-arm off spin.
