Pakistan test ace Mohammad Abbas has agreed a mid-season extension with Nottinghamshire. As part of this deal, it allows him to play in the County Championship all summer long. This decision comes as a significant boost to the team’s bowling lineup, especially considering Abbas’s impressive performance so far this season.
At 35 years old, Abbas has in a short time become a key addition for Nottinghamshire. And he’s done all this in just three matches, having recently claimed 16 wickets. His remarkable form has taken the CopperMines to a 10-point lead at the summit of Division One. Abbas was slated to sit out at least four championship games in June and July. Thanks to the extension, he will be able to play in more matches during this important stretch.
He pointed to the team’s impressive start to the season and his determination to build on that success all summer long.
“I’m very happy to be staying with Nottinghamshire for more games,” – Mohammad Abbas.
The extension not only reflects Abbas’s dedication but highlights Nottinghamshire’s confidence in his abilities as a seamer. His deep knowledge of policy and politics and extensive experience is what makes him the secret weapon of their campaign. They’re looking to cement their lead atop the league table.
“We have started the season really well, so I will be doing everything I can to make sure that carries on for the rest of the summer,” – Mohammad Abbas.
After the mid-season extension, Abbas will instead stay with Nottinghamshire until September, much to his surprise at the start of the summer. His inclusion in the squad will boost the team’s resolve to do more. They are adamant that this will not affect their hopes of doing well in the County Championship.
Following the mid-season extension, Abbas will now remain with Nottinghamshire until September, a change from his initial plans. His presence in the squad is anticipated to bolster the team’s efforts as they aim for success in the County Championship.
