Career

Bedingham made his first-class debut for Northerns in the 2012–13 CSA Provincial Three-Day Competition on 14 March 2013.

He was the leading run-scorer in the 2017–18 CSA Provincial One-Day Challenge tournament for Boland, with 283 runs in seven matches. He was also the leading run-scorer in the 2017–18 Sunfoil 3-Day Cup for Boland, with 790 runs in eight matches.

In June 2018, he was named in the squad for the Cape Cobras team for the 2018–19 season. In September 2018, he was named in Boland's squad for the 2018 Africa T20 Cup. In September 2019, he was named in the squad for the Cape Town Blitz team for the 2019 Mzansi Super League tournament.

In September 2019, he was named in Western Province's squad for the 2019–20 CSA Provincial T20 Cup.

Later the same month, Bedingham scored his maiden double century in first-class cricket, with 257 runs for Durham in the 2021 County Championship in England. In the inaugural season of The Hundred, he was signed by the Birmingham Phoenix to replace Finn Allen for the remainder of the tournament.
