Shadford made his debut for Lancashire in a List A match against Gloucestershire in the 1994 Axa Equity & Law League. He made two further appearances in that season's competition, against Nottinghamshire and Durham.[1] He made his first-class debut the following season against Essex in the County Championship, with Shadford making a further first-class appearance in 1995 against Surrey.[2] He didn't appear for Lancashire in 1996, but did feature for the county in 1997, making eight first-class and eight List A appearances.[1][2] However, in 1998 he made just a single first-class appearance against Essex in the County Championship,[2] as well as making a single List A appearance against Sussex in the AXA League.[1] It was also in 1998 that he made a single appearance for the Lancashire Cricket Board in the MCCA Knockout Trophy against Shropshire.[3]

He left Lancashire at the end of the 1999 season. Since his debut for the county in 1994, Shadford made eleven first-class appearances for the county, taking 23 wickets at an average of 42.73, with best figures of 5/80.[4] This was his only five wicket haul and came against Warwickshire in 1997.[5] With the bat, he scored 120 runs at a batting average of 15.00, with a high score of 30.[6] In List A cricket, he made twelve appearances, taking 11 wickets at an average of 31.63, with best figures of 3/30.[7] His batting in that format consisted of three innings and was negligible.
