Thomas Henry Sidney Rew (born 29 November 2007) is an English cricketer.[1]
In May 2025, aged 17, and still a student at King's College, Taunton, Rew was named in the Professional County Select XI squad to play a three-day match against Zimbabwe, during their tour of England, scoring an unbeaten century in the second innings.[2][3] Later that month, Rew signed a short-term, all-formats contract with Somerset County Cricket Club.[2]
Rew's older brother James made his debut for Somerset in 2021, when he also was 17.[4]
On 30 June 2025 in a match against India Under-19s at the County Cricket Ground, Northampton, Rew set a new record for the fastest one-day century for England Under-19s, reaching his ton in 73 balls and going on to score 131 from 89 balls.[5][6]
