Ready to seize a “big opportunity”
All-rounder Ed Barnard will add to the Bears’ squad in all departments after joining from neighbours Worcestershire on a three-year contract.
Born in Shrewsbury, Ed developed through the Worcestershire Academy and went on to harvest 4,890 runs and 370 wickets for the Pears. In 2022, he was the county’s leading first-class run scorer with 895 runs at an average of 60, while he added 31 wickets.
Now he is “extremely excited” to have joined Warwickshire.
“Edgbaston is a special place and it’s an atmosphere that doesn’t get matched around the country. To have this as my home is really exciting.”
