\n\u201cIt will be exciting to work with Grant Bradburn again after working with him with Pakistan, and I can\u2019t wait to join up with the squad, get to training, and help this great club push for a positive start to the season,\u201d he added.
\nGrant Bradburn, the newly appointed head coach of Glamorgan, lauded Hamza\u2019s inclusion, citing his prior experience working with the Pakistani cricketer during his tenure with the Pakistan national team.
\n\u201cHaving worked with Mir previously in Pakistan, I have full confidence that Mir will add huge value to our team both on and off the field,\u201d Bradburn remarked.
\nMark Wallace, the Director of Cricket at Glamorgan, echoed similar sentiments, hailing Hamza\u2019s signing as \u201cexcellent news\u201d for the club.

\n\u201cIt\u2019s excellent news that Mir has agreed to join us at the start of the season,\u201d Mark Wallace said.
\n\u201cHe\u2019s an international bowler with a fine record and previous experience in county cricket. We\u2019re looking forward to welcoming him to Cardiff,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
