D'arcy Short. Who?. Well, we were underwhelmed when we signed the Duke.
He has made it into the BBL 2019 team of the tournament.
Leading run scorer in it
637 runs,50+ av.,140 run rate.
I'm in!

Ah... now.... D'Arcy Short is one hell of a signing
and for the entire T20 campaign too!
Impressed
(watch Australia call him up unexpectedly for the ashes, now that we've secured the services of a 'proper' T20 player)

With North, Franklin and Bancroft attached to Durham, I suppose we shouldn't be surprised that our new signing is from the antipodes

Well that was a pleasant surprise! No complaints from me - so that'll probably put the mockers on him.

Excellent news! I was going to say that things have to be better this year than they were for the last two years but that'd be tempting fate. At least the fixtures are more evenly spread.
