Yorkshire in swiftly to land Tom Kohler-Cadmore

Director of cricket Moxon believes that Kohler-Cadmore, 22, can go a long way in the game as Yorkshire close in on the signature of a player who is out of contract at the end of the summer.

Kohler-Cadmore, who has verbally agreed a move that it is hoped will be finalised shortly, initially came through the Yorkshire system before winning a scholarship at Malvern College connected to the Worcestershire Academy.

His career has taken off at New Road, where he scored a brilliant century against Yorkshire earlier this season in the Royal London Cup, and Moxon views him as someone who would be a key asset in all forms of the game.

“Tom is a highly talented player and someone who will hopefully go a long way in the future,” he said.

“He’s very ambitious, he wants to play for England eventually, and he’s a solid young man.

“He’s only 22, so he’s obviously not the finished article, but he’s someone who knows where he wants to get to and who has a fantastic work ethic.

“I would fully expect him to achieve his goals.”
