Jermaine Lawson joins Leicestershire on a kolpak contract

At least he won't be pelting down anymore Windies domestic batsman. His action is terrible nowadays. He is quick but he is clearly over the ICC limit.

I feel sorry for county cricket followers who will have to put up with his blatant flinging this year.

'___________ joins ____________ on a kolpak contract'

How many more times are we going to hear that before the season starts

42. The answer is pi/42.

West Indians in county cricket this year:

Shiv Chanderpaul - Overseas player (Durham)
Fidel Edwards - Overseas player (Worcestershire)
Omari Banks - British passport (Somerset)
Gareth Breese - British passport (Durham)
Pedro Collins - Kolpak (Surrey)
Wavell Hinds - Kolpak (Derbyshire)
Jermaine Lawson - Kolpak (Leicestershire)

Quite a list now. Unfortunately only Fidel and Omari are really going to benefit from the experience, the others are there just for the money, security of a long contract etc.

What a joke. Especially as Leics have just dumped a load of their younger bowlers.

Walker was a bit so-so, but I can't believe they've piked up a chucker on a kolpak! Its really got my wick especially as one of the lads on our tour is at Leics and only young as well!

FFS FFS FFS FFS!
