More than just a chip off the old block
Batting against Whitland recently - pic taken from www.westerntelegraph.co.uk/sport With over 700 runs and 32 wickets to his name it's fair to say Tom Davies is having a season to be proud of. Topping the batting charts at the half way point and second place in the bowling, he's the county's premier all-rounder at this point in time and arguably the county's best cricketer which is no mean feat given the names making up the list of Pembrokeshire best batsmen and bowlers. They're all impressive players. Now, aged 27 and in his ninth season as a first team player at Carew he's playing at the peak of his powers, opening the batting and bowling of one of Pembrokeshire's most prestigious clubs and revelling in the chance to bat in one spot and making it his own. It was at the end of last season that he was asked to open the innings and it was a move that immediately paid off being not out in every game he played. The form hasn't tailed off.
