Australian all-rounder Neser signs for Glamorgan

LONDON: Australian all-rounder Michael Neser has signed with Glamorgan as an overseas player for the 2021 season. The deal will see him play the County Championships as well as the One-Day Cup.

The 30-year-old will play four-day and 50-over cricket for the club, and will feature for the Welsh county alongside his Australian and Queensland team-mate Marnus Labuschagne.

"I'm still desperate to play county cricket after my spell this year was cancelled, so when I heard Glamorgan were interested I didn't have to think twice," said Neser in a statement. "I'm keen to come over, showcase my skills, and do what I can to win games of cricket for Glamorgan. I've got those international ambitions, and I saw what playing for Glamorgan did for Marnus, and I'm hoping to do the same thing," he added.

The seam-bowling all-rounder has taken 186 wickets in 56 first-class matches, including four five-wicket hauls and last week scored a maiden first-class hundred for Queensland against Tasmania to go alongside his 11 career half-centuries. IANS
