All-rounder Kellaway signs new Glamorgan contract

Glamorgan all-rounder Ben Kellaway has hit 813 runs and claimed two five-wicket hauls so far this season

Glamorgan all-rounder Ben Kellaway has signed a contract extension to remain with the Welsh county until at least 2028.

The Welshman has enjoyed a standout 2025 for his native county so far.

In the Rothesay County Championship, the 21-year-old has scored 813 runs with an average of 54.20, including two centuries and four half-centuries.

With ball in hand, Kellaway has taken 25 Championship wickets so far, featuring two five-wicket hauls alongside his 10 wickets in the T20 Vitality Blast.

His form and consistency also resulted in a Welsh Fire draft call-up this summer, deservedly taking the Hero of the Match award on his debut against Birmingham Phoenix.

"I'm extremely excited to be continuing my journey here at Glamorgan for the next three years," Kellaway said.

"From joining the pathway over a decade ago to now representing the club is a very proud achievement for myself. I'm looking forward to what can be achieved at the club on both a team and personal level over the next few seasons."

Kellaway suffered a calf injury in Glamorgan's recent draw at Northamptonshire, a result that strengthened the bid to gain promotion from County Championship Division Two.

Glamorgan will be hoping he recovers in time to feature in the crucial game away against promotion rivals Derbyshire, which begins on Monday (10:30 BST).

Kellaway came though the Glamorgan Pathway scheme and signed his Glamorgan rookie contract in 2023, with his professional debut coming in the One Day Cup the same year.

Glamorgan director of cricket Mark Wallace added: "Ben is one of the most exciting young players in the country and we're delighted that he'll be continuing his development at Glamorgan for the next three years.

"Ben is a perfect example of our new strategy that focuses on developing players capable of playing franchise and international cricket."
