With Xavier Doherty's retirement, who's the spinner Tasmania might be signing up?
It might actually be a club cricketer who has been plying his trade in the Hobart club cricket comp for a couple of years now and his name is Luke Doran.
Familiar name? He's the older brother of Jake and played some one-day and BBL cricket for NSW.
Also after a brilliant debut and now approaching his mid 20s, Gabe Bell looks likely to be offered a full contract on the Tigers' senior list.

Rose returned to Victoria after being axed, whereas L. Doran has plied his time in the local club cricket comp for a couple of years and is also employed by Cricket Tasmania off the field; but it's likely to be one or the other, with a very slim possibility of both being added.

He hasn't played a FC or List A match in nearly three years himself. Nor am I sure where he stands as far as playing in the longer formats.

He wanted to keep playing but had no takers at the time. I thought he might get picked up after he qualified as a local player, but that didn't happen either. I'm not sure if he's still keen but he didn't really make a deliberate decision to give up the longer forms, so he'd be well worth a phone call at the very least IMO.

Picking a squad for Tasmania is going to be awfully hard.
They could buy Ben Rohrer for a few seasons.

It will be out of Silk, Hancock, Michael, Fekete, Rainbird and Kingston, with Doherty one vacancy due to his retirement.
Haven't heard anything remotely linking Rohrer to the Tigers.
Michael would appear to be the safest due to his Matador Cup One-Day record and form.

Botha would be a brilliant fit for Tassie. Basically a side in the same place the Redbacks were when he signed up for them.

Ah, yes. Naturally, I can't pay you much of a reward, because I'm strapped for cash.



Ooh! Uh! As you can see, this old place is falling apart. But I'm sure we can come to an understanding.

Required being the operative word.
