Thomas Charles "Tom" Fell (born 17 October 1993 in Hillingdon, Middlesex) is an English cricketer who plays for Worcestershire. He is a right-handed batsman and occasional wicket-keeper.
Tom Fell was educated at Oakham School, where he was the highest run scorer in the school's history.[1] He went on to study at Oxford Brookes University, and played for Oxford MCCU. He left university after a year to focus on cricket.
After the end of the 2015 season, it was confirmed that Fell was suffering from testicular cancer,[2] but after initially being cleared to play grade cricket in Australia, a scan subsequently detected the disease in his lymph nodes and Fell returned to home to undergo chemotherapy.[3] After receiving the all-clear Fell returned to cricket in July 2016 with a half century against Leicestershire.[4]
