Hampshire Cricket can announce it has taken the decision to cancel the contract of overseas player, Nathan Lyon.
The Australian international was due to join the club for a significant part of the 2020 red-ball season, however given the cancellation of all domestic fixtures until 28th May as a result of the current COVID-19 pandemic, it has been mutually agreed that the off-spinner will not join up with the squad this season.
These are obviously very uncertain and challenging times, and it’s clear the issues cricket currently faces will contribute to the way in which counties are able to operate and prepare for this season. As a result of this and following conversations with Nathan and his management, it was mutually agreed that he would no longer join us this season.
Giles White, Director Of Cricket
I would like to thank Nathan and his representatives for their complete understanding and agreement and we hope to welcome him to the club next season.
