Tom Fell was Worcestershire's top scorer last year

Worcestershire batsman Tom Fell has been given the all-clear to resume his career after a scan picked up no further signs of cancer.

The 22-year-old has set his sights on regaining his first team place having completed chemotherapy treatment and on Thursday was told the latest scan had shown no traces of the disease.

"Everyone at the club is ridiculously happy for him," his team-mate, house-mate and close friend Tom Kohler-Cadmore said on the club's website.

"He has gone through so much and for him to get the all clear now is awesome and hopefully it can stay away which everyone has their fingers crossed for.

"It is just great news for him and everyone and hopefully now we will see him back in the first team eventually and scoring hundreds like he was last year.

"He just said 'all clear lads' and then thanks for all the support over the last couple of months."

Fell, last year's leading run-scorer for Worcestershire, had surgery in early October after being diagnosed with testicular cancer at the end of last season and was allowed to travel to Australia to play grade cricket in Perth.

But a CT scan in March detected a small area of cancer in his lymph nodes and Fell was put through three bouts of chemotherapy.

Kohler-Cadmore had his head shaved and has raised more than £4,100 so far for Cancer Research in support of Fell, pledging to keep his head that way for the rest of the 2016 campaign.

Fell was the youngest player to reach 1,000 runs last season, including three centuries, at an average of 41.69 for Worcestershire in the County Championship.

Worcestershire Director Of Cricket Steve Rhodes added: "We are all delighted. The players are delighted for him, and the coaches.

"Tom has gone through some tough times recently but in typical fashion for Tom, he has just got on with it and we are all delighted he can resume his career fully.

"Obviously he has to have his check-ups but it is great news and we are looking forward to having him back with us and scoring plenty of runs which is what he does.

"We heard yesterday that he had got the all-clear. He is always keen to inform all the lads. There have been quite a few worried people around and no more than Tom.

"But it is pleasing that in many ways now he can put it to bed and get on with his cricket and get himself back fit, back match fit, and start producing some runs and force his way back into the side.

"He is a quality cricketer."
