Glamorgan have signed Australian legspinner Peter Hatzoglou on a short-term contract as cowl for Michael Neser, who's at present with Australia for his or her pre-World Test Championship last and Ashes camp.

"Neser is not going to be available for the next three games. He's got some Australia commitments so we're not going to have him," Glamorgan's director of cricket, Mark Wallace, stated.

"We've moved on a short-term contract to bring in Hatzoglou to give us some more bowling depth. Peter's got a good record around the world, mostly in the Big Bash, but in a few other franchise competitions as well.

"We're actually trying ahead to including him to the Glamorgan squad and hopefully kickstarting this T20 marketing campaign."

Hatzoglou, a two-time Big Bash winner with Perth Scorchers, featured for Oval Invincibles in the Hundred last summer and has also played in the Pakistan Super League.

"I'm actually excited to make an affect throughout my keep right here," Hatzoglou said. "With Neser being known as as much as the Australian squad, I wasn't too far-off in Essex and I suppose I received the faucet on the shoulder for the decision up which is nice.

"It's been really good to have some success with the Perth Scorchers over the last couple of years. I had some experience in the Hundred last year playing for the Oval Invincibles and I'm sure it'll be a nice little transition into the Blast this year."
