For the English cricketer, see David Lloyd (cricketer).

David Liam Lloyd (born 15 June 1992) is a Welsh cricketer who plays for Derbyshire County Cricket Club. He is a right-handed batsman and right-arm medium-pace bowler.

Early years

Born in St Asaph, Denbighshire, and educated at Darland High School and Shrewsbury School,[1] Lloyd made his debut in county cricket for Wales Minor Counties against Herefordshire in the 2010 Minor Counties Championship, making two further appearances in that season against Wiltshire and Dorset.[2] The following season he made four appearances in the Minor Counties Championship,[2] as well as making his debut in the MCCA Knockout Trophy against Cornwall, playing twice more in that competition against Wiltshire and Berkshire.[3] He also made three appearances in the 2012 MCCA Knockout Trophy.[3]

Domestic career

Having played for the Glamorgan Second XI since 2008, he joined their playing staff in 2012,[1] and made his first-class debut for the county against Yorkshire in the 2012 County Championship, followed by a second first-class appearance against Kent in the same season.[4]

In September 2022, Lloyd hit a career-best 313 not out in the first innings of a County Championship match against Derbyshire; it was the second highest score of all time by a Glamorgan batsman, the highest in a Glamorgan home match and the highest by a Glamorgan captain.[5]

At the end of the 2023 season Lloyd moved on loan to Derbyshire, before the 2024 season his loan was made permanent.[6]
