Newell's side are third in the County Championship table

Nottinghamshire director of cricket Mick Newell says both David Hussey and Adam Voges are in contention to be the club's overseas player next season.

Hussey has just completed a five-week stint at Trent Bridge as cover for Voges who was away with Australia A.

Newell told BBC Radio Nottingham: "David's played four full years for us and a short period now, and he's very much in our thoughts for next year.

"As is Adam Voges, I've had a chat with David and I'll have chat with Adam."

This season Hussey has scored 407 runs in three first-class matches at an average of 81, including two centuries.

Voges notched 480 runs in five matches before leaving to tour with Australia A. Despite not scoring a century, he made five fifties with his highest score being 99.

Newell added: "We'll start to think about overseas players towards the end of the season and make a decision then."
