An imposing figure with height and pace, Shrewsbury-born seamer Dillon Pennington is one of several former England U19 cricketers in Nottinghamshire’s squad.
His selection for the 2018 World Cup came in the same year he was handed his List A debut for Worcestershire in the Royal London One Day Cup, a marker of his potential as a teenager.
He went on to tally 117 first team appearances across six seasons for the Pears before making the switch to Trent Bridge ahead of the 2024 season.
In his first season at Notts, he claimed 31 First Class wickets at 23.80, earning him his first senior England call-up for their Test series against West Indies.
