Sussex Cricket have signed George Burrows on a short-term contract for the opening month of the season. 

Burrows, a right-arm medium fast bowler arrives at Sussex after leaving Lancashire at the end of 2021 season. George made two first class appearances for Lancashire in the 2020 Bob Willis Trophy, taking four wickets.  

At the end of the 2021 season George made an appearance for our 2nd XI playing against Durham where he bowled 36 overs taking four wickets at an economy of 4.64.  

George will be available for both preseason friendlies against Surrey (23 – 25 March) and Durham UCCE (28 – 30 March) and then the first four rounds of the LV= Insurance County Championship against Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Worcestershire and Durham. 

Ian Salisbury, Championship coach, said “George is a top lad whose impressed us with his bowling, attitude and determination. Everyone deserves a second chance and I’m sure working with James Kirtley can only benefit him and add something different to our bowling unit.” 

George Burrows, said “It’s a privilege to get the opportunity down here at Hove, and hopefully I can have a positive impact on the first part of the season.”
