 Berkshire had hoped to have Shaun Udal for the 2008 season. |
Berkshire's minor counties cricket team say they are close to securing the services of a former England player. Manager David Morris told BBC Radio Berkshire the player's identity will be revealed soon.
He said: "We're a long way down the road with our discussions and hope to be able to unveil the new player at some point in the next fortnight."
Berkshire had a verbal agreement with ex-England and Hampshire bowler Shaun Udal but he opted to join Middlesex.
The club will begin their pre-season training this weekend but there will be several notable absentees from the first session.
Captain Bjorn Mordt, brother of London Irish rugby star Nils, is getting married in Cape Town. Some of Mordt's Berkshire team mates will be at the ceremony.
