Profile:
Thomas has made his way through the junior teams at Bacup, making his first team debut this season (2007) at the age of sixteen, although he did figure as a substitute fielder last season, taking two good catches on his first appearance. He has a good eye for a ball, hits it well and is now learning the value of improving his defensive technique. His first innings in first team cricket produced a cameo of an innings when he came in towards the end of the overs and proceeded to strike the ball well. Universally known as "T-Cake", his apparent lack of nerves showed in this innings when, in the last over, he turned down a risky second run which would have gvien Chris Harris the strike back and then hit two boundaries off the next two balls! Quick in the field with a safe pair of hands, we look forward to watching his progress in the future. (TG, 2007)
