Patto Turns Renegade

Banjo Pattinson was announced today as a "home-based player" signatory by Melbourne Renegades for the 2012/13 Big Bash, effectively changing his status from English to Australian.


Notts DofC said "it was unlikely Pattinson would return next year in any event". So far this year he has only featured in the T20 games and some of the CB40 ones, returning from a back stress fracture. "Darren's decision changes his status as far as I am aware but with his age and the age of his kids I think it was unlikely he would be looking to stay beyond this season,"  Newell added.


Let's hope that Patto goes out in a blaze of glory with the Outlaws then!

Vikram Solanki will be joining Surrey from Worcestershire next season.
