David Mark Ward (born 10 February 1961 at Croydon, Surrey) is a former aggressive batsman and occasional wicket-keeper for Surrey County Cricket Club, playing from 1985 until 2004. In all first-class matches, he scored 8139 runs at an average of 38.39, with 16 centuries and a highest score of 294 not out.[1] He scored "a remarkable 2,072 first-class runs in 1990, including seven hundreds".[1]
Within the conservative and restrictive world of cricketwhites, Ward was able to demonstrate a little eccentricity, occasionally choosing to wear a cap or even helmet decorated in the traditional Harlequin pattern more associated with Douglas Jardine and other players of yester-year.
Ward currently plays club cricket for Old Whitgiftians C.C. in the Surrey Championship when his school duties allow.
