David Evans was a fine and unobtrusive wicket-keeper, and by the time he retired in 1969, he had over 500 dismissals to his name. Born in London, but raised near Ammanford, Evans joined the Glamorgan staff during the mid-1950`s as understudy to Haydn Davies. He made his first-class debut in 1956, and became the regular wicket-keeper in 1958 when Davies retired.
