[Rich2001]

Kent County Cricket Club manager Rich2001 would like to announce the Kent squad for season 4 of WCC.

Kent have been ultra busy in the transfer market this season giving the whole team a complete overhaul ready to take WCC by storm next season.

Speaking on the new players at his disposal Rich2001 said he was overall is very happy with the final 10 that would be staying, but was very sad to see alot of very talented players he wantted to keep traded on in other moves, and wishes them a bit of luck next season

Also all the very best to Wicket-Keeper Paul Nixon who decided to call it a day and retire, he was a great servent for the club in season 1 and 3.

[Rich2001]

ACT COMETS

Given the Punt
12 M Sigera
13 B Hogg
15 M Higgs

Some intresting choices there Simon?

M.Sigera, you gave up your best batsman who has just hit 1400 runs and loads in OD too for this guy yet you haven't kept him (in place of a guy like Bulbeck):rolleyes: - If I was Aditya I would be pretty impressed I just got Maxwell for C.Gayle!

B.Hogg poor guy had a blinder of a season for you and couldn't make the cut, unlucky.

M.Higgs - Gezz the bloody nightmear you put us all through how Higgsy was the star, and you would offer Worcs (who had him at the time) anything just to get him... Now you never played him and are releasing him :P

[Mister Wright]

The Guyana Cricket Board would like to announce the following full names of the rookies contracted for Season 4.

Yogi Hills

Hills is the first player to join Guyana from North America. Yogi has played several seasons in the Canadian league and carries some good form for Academy A as the leading run scorer in both forms of the game into Season 4. He has a promising career in both One Day and Four Day formats as a batsman and is also a handy bowler who can chip in with a few overs now and then. He will be a welcome inclusion to the Guyana Middle order that has been lacking substance for several seasons now.

Yale Cole

Cole recruited from Tamil Nadu is a promising young spinner recruited from England and will play a hand in Guyana's Four Day campaign in season four. Cole also offers some handy lower order batting potential, another weak point of Guyana's in recent seasons.

Vadin Adamson

Adamson is a fine Four Day prospect for Guyana, he is the leading run scorer in Academy J and also has some handy medium bowling to offer the Guyana squad. Adamson comes to Guyana via the Academy after a strong stint in South African provincial cricket.
