Glamorgan bowler Tom Norton was born and educated in Abergavenny
Handed his County Championship debut by Glamorgan, 18-year-old bowler Tom Norton was cock-a-hoop with his figures of 3-75 as Somerset amassed 354 in their first innings after being put in to bat in Cardiff by the hosts.
His next three wickets in the visitors' second innings on Sunday took the young seamer into dreamland, ripping through Somerset's top order with three successive balls for a record-setting hat-trick.
First to fall was opener James Rew, the England hopeful gloving to Asa Tribe at slip. Tom Lammonby strode out to the crease and was immediately trotting back to the pavilion after edging to wicket-keeper Chris Cooke.
In came Archie Vaughan, the son of England's 2005 Ashes-winning captain Michael, and in ran Norton, pitching a ball that rattled into the pads.
