Profile

A Decade of Dedication

Daniel Bell-Drummond is one of English cricket’s most gifted and graceful top-order batters. A proud product of the Kent Cricket Academy, he made his debut for the county as a teenager and has since become a cornerstone of the club’s batting lineup — combining classical strokeplay with calm authority at the crease.

With over a decade of service to Kent and contributions across formats, Daniel has earned a reputation not only for his consistency and leadership, but also for his style, humility, and deep love for the game. His impact extends beyond the field, as a role model and ambassador for diversity in cricket, and a passionate supporter of community and youth initiatives.

The DBD 2026 testimonial year celebrates Daniel’s outstanding career and the values he brings to the sport — professionalism, elegance, and an unwavering commitment to both cricket and community.

Charities

As part of his 2026 testimonial year, DBD is proud to support three causes close to his heart: Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY), Iggy's Fund and Platform Cricket. All of these charities reflect his passion for youth development and making a lasting impact beyond the boundary.

Cardiac Risk in the Young

Cardiac Risk in the Young

Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY) is a UK charity dedicated to preventing young sudden cardiac death (YSCD)—tragic and often unexpected events affecting people aged 14–35. Across the UK, at least 12 apparently healthy young individuals lose their lives each week due to undiagnosed heart conditions, and 80% of these were without prior symptoms. CRY works to change that by combining awareness‑raising, proactive screening, medical research, and bereavement support.
