DARREN Pattinson has already shown it has taken little time for him to settle in at Trent Bridge.
The Aussie paceman was brought in for cover for Ryan Sidebottom and Stuart Broad after the pair were tied to central contracts by the ECB in April.
And the 29-year-old has already re-paid the faith shown in him with a fantastic five wicket haul at Kent in the LV County Championship opener and a critical 4 for 35 in the FPT win over Leicestershire-keeping Notts in prime position to compete in both competitions.
Notts’ Director of Cricket Mick Newell hailed his impact and identified the key role he will now play in the coming months.
He said: “He’s already proved he’s going to be a really important player for us after the wickets he’s picked up for in both formats of the game.”
“He’s come and done an excellent job for us and will play a vital role with Ryan and Stuart away for most of the summer.”
“We met him originally after he came down with David Hussey to a nets session and we’ve kept in contact with him since. Also with him being English born we were aware about the possibilities of bringing him in an not affecting the overseas restrictions.”
“We’ve got the chance to bring in Darren and Luke Fletcher and now and to be honest it can only be of benefit to the side to bring in faces like them who we know can give us real options in our attack.”
But the coach was reserved as to the fact the side can challenge for silverware in the LV County Championship despite topping the table going into a heavy run of fixtures.
He added: “We’ve started off quite well, it was just disappointing more than anything the way we played against Kent up here.”
“We went down there in the first game and played well and came way with the result we wanted.”
“I don’t think we want to look too far ahead, we just want to be competitive. I wouldn’t want us shouting out that we’re going to do this or that like some people do, we’re just looking to compete.”
