We are delighted to announce the signing of talented Australian leg spinner Dylan Smith for the 2019 season

Dylan is from Adelaide and has a UK passport and is from a very supportive family and premier grade cricket club in Northern Districts CC. I am sure we will show him what an equally supportive family SCC are.

Dylan is one of the brightest young leg spinners in Australia and is highly recommended by his current captain and current Leicestershire CCC player, former Australian international Mark Cosgrove. Dylan also plays in the same grade cricket side as Tim Rouse, the Somerset CCC opener and James Harris, the Middlesex CCC all rounder.

Dylan will be arriving on 11th April and will be welcomed by our 1st XI captain Jack Williams who is delighted to add him to our team, especially as Dylan is fresh off a good performance last Saturday where he got the prized wicket of current Australian batsman Travis Head for just 2. Dylan made his SACA Premier Cricket debut at just 16 and is a member of the South Australia Emerging Players Programme, and we want to offer him the chance to develop his cricket further by experiencing our English conditions.

Dylan is keen to get down the club and see what we are about. Please make it down for the outdoor training session on Thursday 11th April and we will welcome Dylan and his dad with some food in the clubhouse after and get to know him and make him feel really welcome before the friendly game on Saturday 13th April.
