Title: Squad
Post by: honkytonk on January 29, 2021, 03:15:40 PM

Does anyone know the situation with the T20 Squad??

Is Delport back?
Are we allowed 2 OS additional to Harmer this year??

I believe Delport's attempts to get his status changed failed. Therefore he could only be signed as an overseas player. You are allowed to register three overseas players but only play two in any game. Harmer now counts as an overseas player. This is what I have gleaned from reading various websites. If I am wrong please do not shoot the messenger.

Shame.  We need to sign a batter and an all rounder in my view.  I could see Harmer missing out and Nijjar getting a run.  Certainly no point having Zampa in the squad.

Harmer is the t20 captain so bound to play unless there is a major rethink.
