His first appearance in county cricket came two months  later, playing a Norwich Union National League game against Sussex. One of the highlights of Trego's debut season came in the Scarborough Festival County Championship match against Yorkshire, where he made an unbeaten 27 batting in Somerset's first innings, followed by bowling figures of 4/84 in Yorkshire's first innings. Towards the end of the 2000 season, Trego was selected as part of the England under-19 cricket team to play the touring Sri Lanka national under-19 cricket team. He appeared in all three One Day Internationals (ODIs), scoring a half century and taking four wickets as he did  so. He also played in the first Test, scoring 90, and taking 1/48 in the match.

In July 2019, he was selected to play for the Rotterdam Rhinos in the inaugural edition of the Euro T20 Slam cricket tournament. However, the following month the tournament was cancelled. Trego was released by Somerset at the end of the 2019 season and signed for Nottinghamshire on a two-year contract. He announced his retirement with immediate  effect from cricket in September 2021. Football career. Trego also plays football as a goalkeeper to a reasonable level. During the 2004–05 season, he played for Margate, and became only the third goalkeeper in the club's history to score when he found the net from a free kick within his own half.
