HAMPSHIRE have included batsman Joe Weatherley in a 12-man squad for the Championship game against Surrey starting tomorrow at The Ageas Bowl.
Weatherley has only ever made one Championship appearance for the county - making 4 and 9 in an innings defeat against Middlesex at Northwood in May 2016.
He played five Championship games while on loan to Kent earlier this season, scoring 180 runs in eight innings at 23.75.
Tom Alsop has replaced the injured Lewis McManus behind the stumps, but Mason Crane is unavailable due to England Test commitments. Surrey are without Mark Stoneman for the same reason.
Hampshire (from): Jimmy Adams, Tom Alsop, James Vince, Joe Weatherley, George Bailey, Liam Dawson, Sean Ervine, Gareth Berg, Ian Holland, Brad Wheal, Fidel Edwards, Kyle Abbott.
