Fast bowler James Pattinson has been named after an impressive return via the Toyota Futures League in late February, claiming 4-53 for the match.
Pattinson played four Sheffield Shield fixtures prior to the BBL for a return of nine wickets, including best figures of 3-13.
Cricket Victoria Chairman of Selectors Andrew Lynch said:
“After James’ setback during the BBL we had the vision of him making a return at the back end of the Shield season.
“He’s obviously a quality player that has the ability to win matches, and he’s coming in at a crucial time as we look to secure a spot in the Final later this month.”
Victoria play New South Wales at Drummoyne Oval from tomorrow, March 12 at 10:30am AEDT. The match will be live streamed on cricket.com.au.
