England allrounder Dimitri Mascarenhas has replaced Sri Lanka paceman Lasith Malinga as Tasmania's international signing for the domestic Twenty20 tournament.
Tasmania spokesman David Boon on Monday said Malinga was
unavailable after Sri Lanka scheduled a limited-overs tour to
Bangladesh.
"When Malinga was first signed we knew this was a possibility
and although it is disappointing, we have a suitable back-up player
in Dimitri Mascarenhas who will arrive in Hobart during December,"
Boon said.
Mascarenhas has played in 14 T20 internationals for England.
Australia's six first-class domestic teams have recruited
foreign players for the T20 tournament, with the winner and
runner-up earning a place at the lucrative international Champions
League.
