Worcestershire announce release of Tom Fell, Josh Dell, Jacques Banton post-2022 season
Tom Fell played 97 FC games for WCCC
Worcestershire County Cricket Club (WCCC) announced the release of three players — Tom Fell, Josh Dell, and Jacques Banton — after their current contract expires post the 2022 domestic season.
Speaking on their release, Chairman Paul Pridgeon said:
"The decision was made to release Tom and Josh and Jack, and we wish them all the very best in their future careers, whatever they may be, hopefully still inside cricket. You hope they get opportunities with other clubs. It’s always very difficult when you have to release players, and the coaching staff don’t take it lightly,"
“It is very disappointing for those players, but, at the end of the day, we have felt one or two players have come in and gone past them a little bit.”
