£8 Million Net Worth Terry Crawley, Father Of Zak Crawley, Was Once England’s Fifth-Highest Paid Individual

England batter Zak Crawley was born in February 1998, in the house of £8 Million net worth Terry Crawley (father). While Zak continues to take strides in pursuit of making a mark in international cricket, Terry is already an established name as one of the wealthiest man in the whole of England during the late 1990s.

The right-handed batter grew up in a luxurious home near Sevenoaks (town in Kent), and had his formal education at the popular New Beacon and Tonbridge private schools. Apart from his father, his mother, Lisa, and sister, India, are also part of his small family.

A fair share of credit for Crawley’s growth as a cricketer since his Under-11 age-group days goes to both his mother and father. They would not only be his constant companion during his travels during match days, but would also make sure to provide him with some batting practice whenever he wished.
