da realsbet: Cricinfo staff16-Dec-2008Mick Newell, Nottinghamshire’s director of cricket, has predicted that there will be some new signings before the start of the 2009 season.”We need to complete a deal for an overseas player and possibly another batsmen,” he told the BBC. “Our strength is without a doubt our seam bowling … we nearly did enough with the bat to win some competitions this year. But we still need to have an influx of quality in there to keep the pressure on the guys. You can’t just have five players knowing that they’re going to fill the five spots.”The county have also announced they will play pre-season away matches against Kent (April 1-3) Leicestershire (April 5-6) and Essex (April 6-7) prior to the start of the summer.
