Daniel Rowe

Daniel Thomas Rowe (born 22 March 1984 in Ogwr, Glamorgan) is a Welsh-born English cricketer, who represented Leicestershire CCC and Oxfordshire Minor Counties.

Rowe joined Leicestershire in 2005 following a standout tenure at Cardiff UCCE. A product of the Glamorgan age groups and Tondu CC, he also enjoyed a brief spell with Somerset CCC while completing his university studies. A powerful right-arm fast-bowling all-rounder, Rowe was known for his "game-changing" ability to seize momentum from the opposition.

Though he debuted against the touring West Indians in 2006, his First-Class debut arrived in 2007 against Essex, where he made an immediate impact with a resilient 85 and two first-innings wickets. Despite his early promise and consistent performances for the Second XI, limited first-team opportunities led to his release in 2008.

In 2009, Rowe transitioned to Oxfordshire CCC. Over four seasons, he became a mainstay of the side, appearing in 33 total matches across the Championship and Trophy formats. His tenure was highlighted by several match-winning displays, most notably a dramatic hat-trick against Herefordshire at Banbury to secure an unlikely victory.

Rowe continues to play in the South Wales Premier League, having represented clubs such as Swansea, Sully, and Port Talbot. Today, he has transitioned into high-level coaching, currently working with Glamorgan CCC Women and the Emerging Player Programme (EPP), as well as coaching with Wales National Counties (NC).
