New Delhi, March 30 (Ians) Durham have signed Australia’s left-arm spinner Matthew Kuhnemann for their upcoming County Championship season. Kuhnemann’s arrival to Durham comes as a replacement for his countrymate, off-spinner Todd Murphy.
Durham said in an official statement that it had initially engaged with Murphy for the 2023 County Championship season, but he was deemed unavailable for the first block of County Championship matches.
Depending on clearance from Cricket Australia, the club added that they are still hopeful Murphy will join the Club following the Ashes, while adding that Kuhnemann will remain with Durham throughout the 2023 season and will be available for the County Championship.
The 26-year old Kuhnemann made his Test debut against India in the second Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test at New Delhi in February this year. In the series, he picked nine wickets in three matches, including a maiden five-wicket haul in Australia’s nine-wicket victory in Indore in March.
