Middlesex Sign Gilchrist For Twenty20s & Talk with Sachin

London: Middlesex have signed a contract with Adam Gilchrist, and are in talks with Sachin Tendulkar, to play Twenty20 cricket for the county during the 2010 domestic season.

Vinny Codrington, the Middlesex chief executive, said he was "absolutely delighted" with the signing of Gilchrist. "We've worked extremely closely with the MCC to ensure that Adam comes on board with us next season," he said "and this signing is great testament to how well our two clubs are working together to guarantee that Middlesex supporters and MCC members alike are rightfully treated to the very best world talent that Twenty20 cricket has on offer."

Codrington confirmed that the county was also in discussion with Tendulkar and his agent. "As a result of Sachin's busy schedule of late however; representing India in the one day series against Australia, playing in the current Test series against Sri Lanka and celebrating his twenty years in international cricket, this is yet to be confirmed," Codrington said. "He is due to be speaking to the BCCI about playing for us next season when the time is right."
