Tom Fell was educated at Oakham School, where he was the highest run scorer in the school's history.[1] He went on to study at Oxford Brookes University, and played for Oxford MCCU. He left university after a year to focus on cricket.

After the end of the 2015 season, it was confirmed that Fell was suffering from testicular cancer,[2] but after initially being cleared to play grade cricket in Australia, a scan subsequently detected the disease in his lymph nodes and Fell returned to home to undergo chemotherapy.[3] After receiving the all-clear Fell returned to cricket in July 2016 with a half century against Leicestershire.[4]

He made his Twenty20 debut for Worcestershire in the 2018 t20 Blast on 17 August 2018.[5]
