Ntini to play for Warwickshire
LONDON, June 29: South Africa fast bowler Makhaya Ntini will join Warwickshire for the second half of this season, the English county club said on Wednesday. Ntini will replace Zimbabwe paceman Heath Streak, who returns home in August for the New Zealand and India series.
“I am really looking forward to playing for Warwickshire,” the 27-year-old Ntini said in a statement.
Ntini, who has taken 221 wickets in 59 Tests at an average of 29.21, follows in the footsteps of compatriot Shaun Pollock, a former Warwickshire overseas signing. “I spoke to Shaun about it and he told me it would be a great experience for me to come and play county cricket,” Ntini added.”—-Reuters
