Warwickshire snap up Hannon-Dalby for 2013 season - Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Oliver-James-Hannon-Dalby-c80190 for the upcoming 2013 county season.
Hannon-http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Martyn-Douglas-Moxon-c74955 permission to train with the Bears at Edgbaston, after discussing his limited first-team opportunities and
future at Headingley. He impressed during his one month trial at Edgbaston and Yorkshire agreed to release him from the last year of his contract at Headingly.
The 6 feet 8 inches tall fast bowler, who failed to play a single LV = County Championship game last summer, and his chances of getting a call up into the first team in 2013 season were more bleak, since Yorkshire has signed http://www.senore.com/Cricket/LE-Plunkett-c1833
from http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Northamptonshire-c824.
However, it is not going to be an easy task for Hannon-Dalby to win a first team place at Edgbaston as well, where he will be competing for a spot with the likes of Chris Wright, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Rikki-Clarke-c85428.
However, the gangling Halifax seamer can take heart from the fact that most of these bowlers play for the national team and with a busy season awaiting the Three http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Lions-c808, few of them are likely to be called up for national duty.
The Warwickshire county management is also aware that they could be weakened by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 call-ups during the season.
"With Woakes, Wright, Rankin and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Clarke-c51120 all featuring in England's winter touring squads, it's essential that we're prepared for more call-ups in the summer," Warwickshire's new director of cricket, Dougie Brown, said. "So Oliver is
a great addition to the squad."
"Whilst he's struggled to consistently hold a place in the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Graeme-Welch-c60527
and we hope he can continue to develop here in the same way that our current fast bowlers have," he added further.
Dalby said, "Warwickshire were outstanding in first-class and one-day cricket last season and whilst I'm sad to be leaving my home county, I'm very excited about the new challenge ahead and joining up with my new team mates. The new
facilities at Edgbaston are among the best in world cricket and we've got a great squad that's capable of challenging for honours in all formats of the game."
