Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
Dawson had a first-class century against his name at the age of 18 playing for Hampshire at Trent Bridge in September 2008 - the youngest to do so for the club. He racked up more than 1000 runs in the FC arena by 2010. Having proven his mettle with the bat, Dawson decided to go to Zimbabwe to improve his bowling. He shone in the very first game by picking 7/51, playing for the Mountaineers. He returned home as an improved cricketer. He picked 26 wickets in the 2012 County Championship at an average below 35.
He was one of Hampshire’s best players in 2015. In the Royal One-Day Cup competition, Dawson showcased his all-round prowess. He picked 15 wickets at an average of 22 and amassed 324 runs with the bat averaging 64. The Hampshire all-rounder was named in the England squad for the 2016 ICC World Twenty20 in India, but couldn’t make it to the playing XI.
He made his T20I debut in July 2016 against Sri Lanka and had an impressive outing finishing with figures reading 3/27. A couple of months later, he played his first ODI for England in a dead-rubber against Pakistan.
Dawson was drafted into the England Test side due to an injury to Zafar Ansari and he made his Test debut against India at Chennai in December 2016. Primarily picked for his bowling, he scored 66* in his maiden innings - the highest score by an England number eight making their debut.
In the home series against South Africa in 2017, Dawson was selected as the England's 'number one' spinner for the Lord's Test. He scalped two wickets apiece in either innings and failed to open his account with the bat. He took part in the following Test before being axed from the team. Dawson, known for his accuracy, continued to be part of the England set-up in the shorter format, injured his right side whilst bowling in the second match in away series against Sri Lanka in October 2018.
World Cup - What to expect
Following his injury in the island nation, Dawson was replaced by Joe Denly and was not selected in England’s preliminary 15-member squad. However, in a surprising move, Dawson - rated as the third-best one-day spinner in the country - found himself parachuted into the WC squad with just over a week to go for England’s tournament opener.
In the World Cup year, the all-rounder performed well in the Royal London One-Day Cup competition - taking 18 wickets and scoring 271 runs in nine matches - for Hampshire. Dawson, who’ll be taking part in his maiden WC, will find it difficult to make the playing XI with the spin-twins Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid ruling the roost.

Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Spin-bowling allrounder Liam Dawson turned the tide of a faltering county cricket career when he made his England T20 debut against Sri Lanka in 2016. An ODI debut against Pakistan also followed by the end of the summer, and the winter brought a Test debut in Chennai, where he made a dogged, unbeaten 66 batting at No. 8.
A former England U-19 captain, Dawson made his maiden first-class century at 18, becoming the youngest player to score a hundred for Hampshire. He initially developed as a top-order batter who provided useful left-arm spin as a supplement, but went on to be known more for his bowling than his batting as his career progressed.
Dawson took 7 for 51 on his debut for Mountaineers in Zimbabwe in 2011, and the next summer, back in England, hit the headlines by dismissing Kevin Pietersen for two golden ducks - in a 40-over game and a T20. That year he took nine wickets at 24.22 in Hampshire's title win in the T20 competition, and a year later, 13 at 21.30, though they only made it as far as the semi-finals this time.
Dawson put up over 1000 first-class runs for the first time in 2013. In 2016 came England debuts in T20I and ODI cricket, and though he was initially overlooked for the Test tours of Bangladesh and India, he flew in midway as an injury replacement and made his debut in Chennai.
Lord's against South Africa the following year was his next call - where he took four wickets and made a pair. One more Test, in that same series, where he failed with bat and ball and that was his Test career done.
Dawson's excellent T20 form for Hampshire in 2018 won him a place on England's one-day tour to Sri Lanka, where he played two ODIs to no great effect. In 2019, he averaged 54 with the bat and took 14 wickets as Hampshire finished third in the County Championship. His next white-ball excursion for England came in 2022, when he went on tours of West Indies, Pakistan and Australia.
The following season was his annus mirabilis in the Championship: 49 wickets and 840 runs from 14 games, helping fetch Hampshire eight wins, as many as title winners Surrey, and third place on the table. By then, Dawson was acknowledged to be one of the club's most versatile and prolific players, having made over 13,000 runs and taken 500-plus wickets across formats for them in his first 15 years with them.
