Northamptonshire have signed Nottinghamshire all-rounder Calvin Harrison on a two-year contract.<\/p>\n
The leg-spinner spent much of the 2025 season on loan at Wantage Road and was Northants’ leading wicket-taker in the County Championship, with 36 from 10 games.<\/p>\n
He also scored 456 runs at an average of 32.57, including an innings of 122 against Kent in July.<\/p>\n
“We see him as a leader within our group moving forward, and he provides a lot of options for us with bat, ball and in the field, so we’re over the moon that he’s continuing his development with us,” said head coach Darren Lehmann.<\/p>\n
“He’s putting trust in what we are doing and building, and that’s very pleasing from the club’s point of view.”<\/p>\n
Harrison, 27, joined Notts in 2021, following earlier spells at Oxford MCCU and Hampshire and took 103 wickets for the club in all formats of the game.<\/p>\n
But he only played one red-ball game for them in the summer as they won their first County Championship title since 2010.<\/p>\n
“It’s a tough decision for everyone connected to the club when we have to make a decision like this, but doing so is part of the modern cricketing landscape,” said head coach Peter Moores.<\/p>\n
“Calvin’s keen to play more four-day cricket, so we’ve agreed to his release to allow him to continue his development.”<\/p>\n
Harrison has also played in The Hundred for Trent Rockets and Manchester Originals.<\/p>\n
He said: “After being on loan with Northamptonshire this summer, I’m looking forward to joining on a full-time basis.<\/p>\n
“I enjoyed working with Boof [Lehmann] and the whole coaching team, and I’m hoping to help contribute to us going on and winning trophies.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Northamptonshire have signed Nottinghamshire all-rounder Calvin Harrison on a two-year contract.
