Shahbaz Ali Agrees to Join Horspath

Shahbaz Ali

We are delighted to announce that Shahbaz Ali has agreed to join Horspath next season. Shahbaz, a 33 year old all rounder, a left-handed batsman & a right arm bowler, has most recently been playing for Banbury in the Home Counties Premier League.  He also played in all four MCCA  Trophy games for Oxfordshire last season.

Commenting on the news, first team Captain, Adam Krol, said 'I think it is a real coup.  We went to speak to him and he said 'yes' within five minutes of chatting to him, which was great news.  He is maybe keen for a different challenge and knows the club relatively well anyway.  I think it is a great signing.'

Here's how the news was reported in the Oxford Mail
