Nottingham sign Lancs opener Hameed

[CleggHall]

Lancs and England opening bat Hameed signs 2 year contract with Nottingham.
One can only wish him well, can Peter Moores succeed in turning him round where others failed?

[tiger76]

I'm not surprised he's been signed by another county,the lad clearly has talent,for whatever reason he's lost his way,he was unfortunate injuries struck just when he was establishing himself in the England set-up,but for his and England's sake let's hope he can start scoring runs in the CC.

He'll have to fight to get back into England reckoning though,the likes of Dom Sibley have overtaken him for now.

A change of scene might do him good and different coaches,you don't become a bad player overnight,a few big innings and his confidence will soon return.

Wonder if he is taking his dad with him

[Longsidelenny]

Well said tiger 76 up the colne

[Bordeauxclaret]

Could end up The Cherno Samba of cricket.

[Quickenthetempo]

Trent Bridge is certainly one of the better places to bat.

Good luck to the lad.

From people I've spoken to, that's been a major problem at Lancs.

Baffling at how he's seemed to 'lose it' after his injury.
Good luck to him at Notts.

Hell fire this is remarkable, in football parlance this would be like Arsenal signing Akinfenwa.

I hope the Notts fans are issued with helmets for home games when Hameed starts teeing off in the T20.

[LeadBelly]

Seems quite a risk for Notts who got relegated & will be looking to get back to division 1 straight away. He's got a 2 year deal there but at 23 (when next season starts) he needs to find some form in this coming season whilst in Division 2 (though that eluded him last season).
Moores obviously fancying his chances of working the magic.

Trent Bridge is certainly one of the better places to bat.

Good luck to the lad.

It's also one of the best wickets to bowl on too. Probably swings around there as much as anywhere in the Country.. He will certainly need to get the feet going or his nightmare may just continue..

It does swing, but the small boundaries should reward his style of play a bit more. Where he usually plays singles, he could be picking up boundaries.

[DAVETHEVICAR]

I think and hope he will get back to the form he showed playing for England when opening with the excellent Alistair Cook

[Foulthrow]

Surely the ability isn't in question? Must be the noggin that he needs to get right.
