That's really disappointing news, has done well this season (including today) after a mixed couple of years. Always seems to give 100%. Possibly signed as injury cover for Norwell?
We have a really promising young group of batters (Bracey/Hammond/Hankins/Charlesworth) but the bowling looks really thin for next year. |

Is it any coincidence that Glos ccc put all their eggs in the T20 basket and the two bowlers who are leaving don't play in the one day side. If you were the type of bowler Glos ccc need to replace them would you consider signing?
Expect the replacements to be young kids from the academy, an old pro who has been released elsewhere or a Kolpak?
But don't worry we still host ODI's so the lack of investment/ambition from the club over the last decade has been worth it

Very sorry to see him go. Sad to see so little loyalty in sport these days, whether footy, rugby or cricket! Surely there must be some way of financial redress when having nurtured a young lad through their early years they up sticks to greener pastures on the other side of the fence?
GCCC must, at the very least seek out a high quality quickie to replace Miles and Norwell. Suspect the chances are slim.

Miles has allegedly said he wants better pitches to bowl on. Agree it will be a struggle to replace him. Norwell not such a loss given his recent poor fitness. |
