Tom Lammonby: Age, Career Stats, 114 & Somerset Career

Tom Lammonby is an English batting all-rounder for Somerset who bats left-handed and bowls left-arm medium-fast. Born in Exeter on 2 June 2000, he was 26 on 30 August 2026. His senior career began with a remarkable red-ball burst: three hundreds in his first six first-class matches in 2020, including 107 not out while carrying his bat and 116 in the Bob Willis Trophy final at Lord's. His white-ball record later broadened the story. Lammonby hit 90 from 36 balls in the 2021 Blast, scored two List A hundreds in 2025, took five for 20 against Sussex and made a career-best 114 during a 547-run One Day Cup campaign in 2026. A dated career snapshot through 23 August 2026 records 4,227 first-class runs, 943 List A runs and 1,007 T20 runs. Somerset extended his contract through the end of 2028.

Career story

Tom Lammonby career and playing journey

01

Who is Tom Lammonby?

Tom Lammonby is a Somerset batting all-rounder from Exeter. His full name is Thomas Alexander Lammonby, and he combines left-handed top-order batting with left-arm medium-fast bowling. Somerset's current profile places the batting first, which fits a senior record built mainly on runs even though his best List A bowling performance is a five-wicket haul.

His career has moved through distinct phases. Lammonby was an England Under-19 prospect before injury cost him a World Cup appearance, became an immediate first-class century-maker in 2020 and later developed a stronger 50-over record. By August 2026, he was an established Somerset player with a contract running through 2028 rather than a short-term squad addition.

02

Tom Lammonby's age, date of birth and birthplace

Lammonby was born on 2 June 2000 in Exeter, Devon, England. He was 26 years old on 30 August 2026. Somerset publishes the birth date on his current player page, while established career records use the full name Thomas Alexander Lammonby for the same cricketer.

The Devon connection runs through his development. He represented Devon age-group sides, joined Somerset's Academy in 2015 and made his Somerset Second XI debut in the same year. He then played senior cricket for Devon from 2016 to 2018 before his Somerset first-team career began.

03

What type of all-rounder is Tom Lammonby?

Lammonby is best described as a batting all-rounder. He bats left-handed, usually in the top order, and bowls left-arm medium-fast. His overall figures through 23 August 2026 show 4,227 first-class runs against 18 wickets, so batting has clearly carried the larger share of his red-ball value.

The balance changes in one-day cricket. His List A record includes 943 runs at 49.63 and 16 wickets at 26.25, capped by five for 20. That does not mean he bowls a full allocation in every match. It shows that his seam bowling can become a decisive second skill when conditions, fitness and team balance create the opportunity.

04

How did Tom Lammonby develop through Devon and Somerset?

Lammonby's route began in Devon age-group cricket and continued through Somerset's Academy. The county says he joined the Academy in 2015 and appeared for its Second XI that year. Devon Cricket later recorded his progress from junior teams to senior county cricket and his first professional Somerset contract in 2018.

That pathway matters because his senior breakthrough was not sudden in the developmental sense. He had already accumulated years of age-group, academy, Second XI and Devon experience. By the time Somerset selected him in senior T20 cricket in 2019, he had been working inside the county structure for roughly four years.

05

What did Tom Lammonby achieve for England Under-19s?

Lammonby was named England's player of the series after the 2017 youth one-day series against India. The BCCI's account records 151 runs at almost 38 across the five matches, making him England's leading run-scorer and top of the averages. India's coaching staff selected him as England's man of the series.

The ECB then named him in England's squad for the 2018 Under-19 World Cup in New Zealand. A broken hand suffered in practice forced him out before the tournament, and an ICC announcement confirmed Euan Woods as his replacement. The selection remains part of his pathway, but it should not be presented as a World Cup appearance.

06

Did Tom Lammonby captain England Under-19s?

Lammonby was selected to captain England Under-19s against South Africa in 2018, but a heel stress fracture ruled him out before the series. The ECB reported that Tom Banton took over the captaincy. That makes Lammonby a named youth captain whose injury prevented him from leading that particular series on the field.

The distinction is useful because squad announcements and actual appearances answer different questions. Lammonby's youth record demonstrates leadership recognition and batting performance, while the injury record explains why the 2018 World Cup and South Africa series do not contain the appearances that his original selections suggested.

07

When did Tom Lammonby make his Somerset debut?

Lammonby made his senior Somerset debut in a T20 match against Kent at Canterbury on 20 July 2019. His first-class debut followed against Glamorgan at Taunton on 1 August 2020 in the Bob Willis Trophy. The formats began a year apart and should not be compressed into one generic debut date.

His List A debut arrived later and for a different team. Lammonby first appeared in the format for England Lions against Sri Lanka A on 21 February 2023. Somerset's limited List A opportunities during The Hundred window then became an increasingly important part of his career in 2025 and 2026.

08

Why was Tom Lammonby's 2020 breakthrough unusual?

Lammonby scored three centuries in his first six first-class matches. The sequence began with his maiden hundred against Gloucestershire at Taunton, continued with an unbeaten 107 against Worcestershire and ended with 116 against Essex in the Bob Willis Trophy final at Lord's. Somerset also records that he took his first first-class wicket on the day of the maiden century.

Three early hundreds did not guarantee a smooth rise afterward, but the concentration of milestones was exceptional. He finished the shortened 2020 competition with more than 450 runs at an average above 50 and earned selection in the season's team. It remains the defining starting point of his senior red-ball biography.

09

How did Tom Lammonby become Somerset's youngest player to carry his bat?

Lammonby made 107 not out against Worcestershire in 2020 and became Somerset's youngest player to carry his bat in a first-class innings. Carrying the bat means an opening batter remains unbeaten when the team's innings ends, not merely that he finishes with the highest score.

The innings was his second first-class century and came in only his fifth match. The county-specific wording is important: it is a Somerset age record, not an unrestricted world record. The performance also showed a different quality from a quick white-ball score because he survived every completed wicket around him.

10

What happened in the 2020 Bob Willis Trophy final?

Lammonby scored 116 against Essex at Lord's in the Bob Willis Trophy final, his third hundred in six first-class appearances. Somerset needed a substantial second-innings performance to keep the match alive, and his century supplied it against the eventual champions.

Essex secured the trophy on the first-innings tiebreak after the final ended without an outright winner. The result means Lammonby's hundred was a major final performance, not a title-winning innings. Preserving that distinction gives the achievement its real pressure and context without changing the team result.

11

Why is Tom Lammonby's 90 from 36 balls still important?

Lammonby hit 90 from 36 balls against Gloucestershire in the 2021 Vitality Blast. The innings contained 11 fours and four sixes and helped Somerset win by 23 runs, securing a home quarter-final. It remains his only T20 fifty and his highest score in the format through 23 August 2026.

The strike rate for the innings was 250, far above his career T20 batting average and not representative of every role he has held. Its value lies in showing his top-end scoring range. A batter better known for red-ball accumulation produced a short, decisive innings when the match required immediate acceleration.

12

Which franchise teams has Tom Lammonby represented?

Lammonby's senior teams include Somerset, Manchester Originals, Hobart Hurricanes, Karachi Kings and Oval Invincibles. He represented Manchester Originals from 2021 to 2023, joined Hobart Hurricanes for the 2021-22 Big Bash season, appeared for Karachi Kings in 2022 and was associated with Oval Invincibles in 2024.

A team listing does not mean he played the same role or number of matches for each side. His main career base remains Somerset, where the multi-season first-class and one-day record sits. Franchise spells show that teams valued his flexible batting and left-arm bowling, but they do not replace county cricket as the centre of his career.

13

What changed in Tom Lammonby's 2024 red-ball season?

Lammonby scored 941 first-class runs at 39.30 in 2024, his most productive red-ball season to that point. Somerset's review records a highest score of 100 and describes improved consistency after winter work on his batting fundamentals.

The season did not reproduce the burst of three hundreds from 2020. Instead, it showed a more durable contribution across a full campaign. That difference matters: early-career peaks attract attention, while repeated starts and regular runs often determine whether a county top-order player remains dependable over a long season.

14

How did Tom Lammonby's List A batting improve in 2025?

Lammonby entered the 2025 One Day Cup without a List A century and finished the campaign with two. His maiden hundred came against Warwickshire, although Somerset lost by three wickets. He then made 102 from 104 balls against Kent as Somerset chased 270 and won by four wickets with 5.3 overs remaining.

The two innings changed the shape of his format record. One came in defeat and one in a successful chase, so they reveal more than a repeated milestone. By the end of the following campaign, those hundreds sat inside a List A aggregate of 943 runs at 49.63, his strongest batting average across the three senior formats.

15

How did Tom Lammonby take five for 20 against Sussex?

Lammonby took five wickets for 20 runs from seven overs against Sussex in the 2025 One Day Cup. Somerset defended 243 by dismissing Sussex for 153, winning by 90 runs. His spell included a triple-wicket maiden and remains his best senior bowling return through the August 2026 cutoff.

The performance helps explain why the all-rounder label still fits despite the much larger volume of career runs. It was his first List A five-wicket haul and converted supporting seam into a match-winning role. It should not, however, be used to imply that he regularly takes five wickets or leads Somerset's attack.

16

Why was Tom Lammonby's 2026 One Day Cup his best?

Lammonby scored 547 runs in eight matches during Somerset's 2026 One Day Cup campaign. His average was 68.38, and he registered one century and four fifties. Those figures made the competition his most productive senior one-day season and supplied more than half of his overall List A career runs at the 23 August cutoff.

The campaign was consistent as well as high-volume. He began with 92 against Nottinghamshire, reached a career-best 114 against Surrey and made 68 in the final group match against Lancashire. Somerset did not qualify for the knockout stage, so the personal return should not be confused with team progression.

17

What made Tom Lammonby's 114 against Surrey a career best?

Lammonby scored 114 against Surrey in August 2026, reaching his hundred from 84 balls. He and Lewis Goldsworthy added 152 for the third wicket as Somerset posted 368 for nine. Surrey were dismissed for 180, giving Somerset a 188-run win.

The innings passed Lammonby's previous List A best and became his third century in the format. Goldsworthy made 83 and Somerset's bowlers completed the result, so the match was not a solo performance. Lammonby's contribution was the largest score in a total that allowed the attack to defend with a wide margin.

18

How long is Tom Lammonby's Somerset contract?

Somerset announced in May 2025 that Lammonby had signed a new three-year contract. The agreement keeps him at the club through the end of the 2028 season. At the time, the county described him as a left-handed top-order batter who could also contribute with left-arm medium pace.

A contract end date establishes current team continuity, not a guaranteed place in every XI or the financial value of the deal. Selection still depends on form, fitness, format and team balance. The public announcement did not disclose his county salary.

19

Tom Lammonby career statistics through 23 August 2026

The career table uses one dated snapshot through 23 August 2026. It records 82 first-class matches, 19 List A matches and 86 T20 matches. Keeping the same cutoff across the batting and bowling cells prevents later partial updates from mixing different sets of completed fixtures.

These are overall career figures, so they can include appearances outside Somerset. Somerset's official player page also publishes club and season views, which may show different totals because the scope is narrower. A difference between an all-team career row and a Somerset-only row is not automatically an error.

20

Tom Lammonby's first-class statistics

Through 23 August 2026, Lammonby had scored 4,227 runs in 82 first-class matches at an average of 31.54. His record included nine centuries, 18 fifties and a highest score of 133. He had taken 52 catches.

His left-arm bowling produced 18 wickets from 1,430 deliveries at an average of 46.83, with best innings figures of three for 26. The gap between 4,227 runs and 18 wickets demonstrates why batting is his primary first-class discipline even though he remains capable of supplying seam overs.

21

Tom Lammonby's List A statistics

Lammonby had 943 runs from 19 List A matches at an average of 49.63 through the cutoff. He had scored three hundreds and five fifties, with a highest score of 114. His 2025 and 2026 One Day Cup performances account for most of that compact but productive record.

With the ball, he had taken 16 wickets from 443 deliveries at 26.25. His best figures were five for 20, and he had held eight catches. The batting and bowling averages describe different units, so the smaller bowling number reflects runs conceded per wicket rather than a direct comparison with runs per dismissal.

22

Tom Lammonby's T20 statistics

Lammonby's T20 record through 23 August 2026 contained 86 matches and 1,007 runs at an average of 19.00. His highest score was 90, and he had one fifty. The 36-ball innings against Gloucestershire remains the clear peak inside a career that often placed him in changing batting positions.

He had also taken 15 wickets from 317 balls at an average of 32.60, with best figures of two for 32, plus 48 catches. He had not played a senior T20 international by 30 August 2026. Domestic and franchise T20 appearances therefore make up this row.

23

What do Tom Lammonby's overall and Somerset-only statistics mean?

Overall career tables and county profile tables can legitimately disagree because they answer different questions. The overall first-class row includes every qualifying team, while Somerset's club table can be limited to appearances for Somerset. Season filters introduce another scope by showing only matches inside one campaign.

The safest comparison starts with format, team scope and cutoff date. For example, Lammonby's 547 runs in the 2026 One Day Cup are a season total, while 943 is his overall List A career aggregate through 23 August. Adding the 547 to 943 would count the same 2026 runs twice.

24

What is known about Tom Lammonby's salary and net worth?

Reliable public records do not disclose Lammonby's Somerset salary, endorsement income, total career earnings or net worth. His contract confirms employment through 2028 but gives no financial value. Estimates on unsourced biography sites therefore cannot be treated as established facts.

The official 2026 Hundred auction register listed him as a domestic Somerset player with a £31,000 reserve price. A reserve is an auction threshold, not proof that a franchise bought him, that he received that amount or that it represents annual income. It cannot support a net-worth calculation.
