Mason Crane Moves To Glamorgan Permanently 

Hampshire Cricket have announced that bowler Mason Crane has signed a permanent deal with Glamorgan, having spent the entirety of the season so far on loan at Sophia Gardens.

Crane, a product of Hampshire’s successful player pathway system, made his first-team debut in a T20 match against Surrey in 2015, aged just 18. He instantly impressed and picked up two wickets, including the scalp of Kumar Sangakarra.

He followed that up by becoming the youngest Hampshire player to take a five-wicket haul in the County Championship when he finished with figures of 5-35 against Warwickshire.

Continuing to impress on the county scene, Crane was called up to England’s IT20 side in the summer of 2017, before making his Test debut as part of their squad for the 2017/18 Ashes series in Australia.

Overall, he played 154 times across all formats for Hampshire, taking 247 wickets. He was part of the sides that won the 2018 Royal London Cup and the 2022 Vitality Blast.

He has spent the first half of this season on loan with Glamorgan and now will join the Welsh based side on a permanent deal.
