Kyle Hogg on loan to Worcestershire
Lancashire CCC has agreed to loan 23 year old Birmingham born all rounder Kyle Hogg to Worcestershire. The four week loan period will include four Friends Provident Trophy games, two LV County Championship matches (against Surrey and Warwickshire) and some early matches in the Twenty 20 Cup.
WCCC Director of Cricket, Steven Rhodes, says “With the ongoing injury to Matt Mason and the latest injury to Roger Sillence, it seems a sensible and exciting move to loan a player of Kyle’s undoubted ability to help us over the next month. He will be a natural replacement for Roger in our forthcoming Friends Provident Trophy matches against Durham and Warwickshire.”
LCCC Cricket Manager, Mike Watkinson, says “It’s a good opportunity for Kyle to play 1st XI cricket in all competitions. He is a talented player who is very much part of our future plans and the arrangement will hopefully benefit the Player and Lancashire.”
Kyle will travel with Worcestershire to Durham on Thursday and will definitely play against Durham Dynamos and Warwickshire Bears in the Friends Provident Trophy games on Friday and Sunday.
