David Charles Nash (born 19 January 1978 in Chertsey, Surrey) is a retired English cricketer.[1]

Career

David Charles Nash was born in Chertsey, Surrey in January 19, 1978. He was educated at Sunbury Manor and Malvern College.[1]

In 1995 and 1996, he played 12 U-19 Tests for Middlesex.[1]

Overall, Nash played 257 matches for Middlesex in both first-class and List A cricket as a wicket-keeper and right-handed batsman.[citation needed]

He became Middlesex's first choice wicket-keeper following the retirement of Keith Brown at the end of 1997.[1] Injury limited his appearances during Middlesex's 2004 and 2005 seasons, when Ben Scott assumed his wicket-keeping role. He was awarded a Benefit in 2007, following his service to the club. He is currently the county club's eighth most prolific wicketkeeper in first-class cricket.

Nash first played in the English cricket team at Under-14 level and he also represented the England Under-19 team in 12 Tests and 7 ODIs. However, despite touring with the England A team (playing twice), he never received full international recognition.

He was awarded a benefit year in 2007, deciding to raise the funds solely for The Shooting Star Children's Hospice.[2] He was still playing for Middlesex in 2008.[3] He announced his retirement at the end of the 2009 season.[1] It brought to end a 22-year career, with Nash saying he'd "lived his dream and it was someone else's turn."[4]

He became a cricket coach for Maccabi GB in 2018, visiting Israel for the first time for the job. He was also working in advertising.[5]
