Sinclair offered NZ cricket lifeline

June 26, 2007 · Leave a Comment

New Zealand Cricket (NZC) has thrown Australian-born Mathew Sinclair another lifeline to international cricket, offering him a contract to replace Hamish Marshall.

A short statement on Tuesday said Central Districts batsman Sinclair had until Friday to accept the offer, which would see him contracted with NZC through to May 31 next year.

A space became available on NZC’s 20-man list of contracted players last week when Hamish Marshall elected to join his English county Gloucestershire as a local player, ruling him out of New Zealand contention.

Three weeks ago Sinclair’s response to missing out on a contract offer was disappointment and the intention to seek a playing berth in England, Australia or South Africa.
