David Burton (born David Alexander Burton, 23 August 1985)〔http://www.cricinfo.com/countycricket2009/content/current/player/260128.html〕 is a first-class cricketer, who has played county cricket for Gloucesteshire, Middlesex and Northamptonshire. ==Career== Burton became a county cricketer after representing four different counties in Second Eleven or friendly matches in 2005 and 2006 (Surrey, Sussex, Essex and Gloucestershire). Whilst at Gloucestershire, he played two Second Eleven matches in the latter part of 2006, taking 5-66 against Derbyshire〔(Derbyshire Second XI v Gloucestershire Second XI in 2006 ) CricketArchive. Retrieved 5 July 2009〕 and 5-76 and 3-60 against Glamorgan〔(Glamorgan Second XI v Gloucestershire Second XI in 2006 ) CricketArchive. Retrieved 5 July 2009〕 and was rewarded by being selected for the First XI in Gloucestershire's last County Championship match of the season against Glamorgan.〔(Glamorgan v Gloucestershire in 2006 ) CricketArchive. Retrieved 5 July 2009〕 Coming in at no.10 with the score on 384-8, he scored 52 * in a 128-run partnership with Mark Hardinges, Gloucestershire's highest-ever ninth-wicket stand against Glamorgan.〔(Highest Partnership For Gloucestershire Against Glamorgan ) CricketArchive. Retrieved 5 July 2009〕 He performed poorly in the remainder of the match, bowling 20 wicketless overs for 129 including three wides and fifteen no-balls and was out for 1 in the second innings. In 2007, Burton played five Second Eleven Championship matches and four Second Eleven Trophy matches for Gloucestershire but could not break into the first team and was released at the end of the season. At the start of the 2008 season, he played three pre-season matches for Kent and another four for Middlesex, and was eventually signed up by the latter. He became a regular in the second XI, playing 11 Championship matches and 4 Trophy matches, and due to injuries to other bowlers got into the first XI for two Twenty20 Cup group stage matches in what turned out to be a competition that Middlesex won. He also played in a first-class match against the touring South Africans. However, he made no further 1st team appearances and was not initially retained for the following season. 2009 saw Burton play one pre-season match for Kent and one Second Eleven Championship match for Leicestershire. Middlesex asked him to return after they suffered another injury crisis to their bowlers, and as well as playing two Second Eleven Championship matches and taking part in a match against Cardiff UCCE he was selected for a County Championship match against his old team Gloucestershire,〔(Gloucestershire v Middlesex in 2009 ) CricketArchive. Retrieved 5 July 2009〕 and in a Twenty20 match against Sussex.〔(Middlesex v Sussex in 2009 ) CricketArchive. Retrieved 5 July 2009〕 Against Gloucestershire, in what was otherwise a difficult match for the Middlesex players, Burton took 5-68,〔(After seven counties, David Burton claims five wickets ) Times Online.

These two performances earned him a contract for the remainder of the season.〔 Middlesex CCC.
