He played for Essex and Derbyshire County Cricket Club between 2003 and 2020.[1][2][3]

A popular player with colleagues and the cricket community, he was not re-engaged by Derbyshire following the end of the 2020 season when the Covid pandemic hit the world of sport quite severely .[4] Palladino subsequently left Derbyshire by mutual agreement. He had been the county's leading wicket taker over the 2018 / 2019 seasons and had been the mainstay of the county bowling attack for a number of years.

Since leaving Derbyshire, he has been Professional / 1st Team Coach (Level 3 Coach) at South Wingfield Cricket Club where promotion to the Derbyshire County Division One has been achieved one year after his arrival (52 wickets @12.4 www.play-cricket.com) & coaches junior cricket @ Brailsford & Ednaston Cricket Club in Derbyshire [5]
