Dan Douthwaite shot to prominence in the early part of the 2019 season by scoring a maiden First-class century against Sussex for Cardiff MCCU. He the followed that up with 95 against Glamorgan the following week.
Douthwaite was courted by many counties, but the 22 year old decided to stay in South Wales and put pen to paper on a deal that keeps him at Glamorgan until 2021.
He was out three times on List A debut against Gloucestershire - stumped off a no-ball and caught on a free hit, before his eventual dismissal - but settled in with a Man of the Match performance against Sussex in the Royal London One-Day Cup as he hit an unbeaten half-century to help power the Welsh county to their best ever chase in the format. He also took 2/46 earlier in the match.
Douthwaite had a strong first County Championship campaign, scoring nearly 300 runs and taking 17 wickets in 7 matches. He was rewarded for his efforts with the John Derrick Player of the Year award.
Douthwaite's 2020 finished with a flurry of three sixes as he helped Glamorgan in a monster run chase at New Road and ended the season as Glamorgan's leading wicket-taker in the Bob Willis Trophy, taking 14 wickets and a best of 3/42. 'DD88' also hit a phenomenal 86 from 92 balls, with 9 fours and 3 sixes, as he helped Marchant de Lange reach a record Glamorgan century.
