Kent seek new overseas player as injury hits Cullinan CricInfo - 23 June 2001
Kent are on the lookout for a new overseas player after Darryl Cullinan was forced to withdraw from his contract because of a persistent knee injury. Cullinan returned to South Africa this week for scans on the injury, having played only three Championship games for the county this season. But he has been told that the injury requires prolonged rest. Kent chief executive Paul Millman said: "This is clearly a disappointing outcome to what has promised to be a most fruitful relationship. We will now be looking for a replacement to take the field as soon as possible." Cullinan wants to stay on in England to assist the club until the end of the season. Millman added: "We will be discussing with Darryl his offer to help in any way that he can and very much appreciate this gesture." Cullinan said: "I'm naturally very disappointed and deeply regret the decision that had to be made. It is the first time in my career that I have suffered an injury this serious but I do feel that rest is the only solution. "I wish the team and my replacement all the very best for the remainder of the season. Kent's new overseas player will be very fortunate to be involved with a great club and a great bunch of lads." © CricInfo Ltd.
