The Hobart Hurricanes can announce that Tim Ward will be joining the Hurricanes squad for their next match against the Brisbane Heat as an injury replacement player.
Ward joins the squad, replacing the injured Iain Carlisle, who has been unavailable for BBL|14 due to an ongoing back injury.
Ward is yet to make his debut for any franchise in the BBL, and has been in terrific form for the Tasmanian Tigers in the Sheffield Shield, since coming back into the lineup at the beginning of this season.
He is currently playing for the Cricket Australia XI against the English Lions in Brisbane, and was also announced in an Australia 'A' squad today, for a match against the same opposition at the end of this month.
A talented left-handed batter, who has the ability to take on any bowler at the top of the order, Ward will be ready to perform for the Hurricanes if selected for any future matches.
The full Hobart Hurricanes squad for their match against the Brisbane Heat will be released at 5 pm.
