Hurricanes lock down big hitter for title defence
The Hobart Hurricanes hit the right notes for a maiden Big Bash League title - and they've essentially got the same band back together in their back-to-back quest. Big-hitter Tim David inked a new two-year deal with the franchise on Tuesday, joining several re-signings ahead of the league's December start. David, who averaged 42 last season at a strike-rate of 177, said he was always intending to stick with Hobart despite some media noise suggesting he would jump to another franchise. "As a group we all wanted to keep playing together," he told reporters. "We had to talk to each other about how we were going to make that happen and what each of us was thinking. "We feel we're at the peak of our powers … and we're excited for what is coming next season." Veteran Matthew Wade and quick Billy Stanlake have extended deals, overseas allrounder Chris Jordan is again on board, with the club adding further re-signings were to come. The Hurricanes have locked down six of the top seven that got the job done in the final against the Thunder - Caleb Jewell is off to the Renegades. They've picked up heavy hitter Jake Weatherald (Strikers) as well as Tasmania-born Beau Webster (Stars), who is impressing in the Test side. David, who has played 54 T20 internationals, said his recovery from a hamstring injury suffered in the IPL was progressing well. The 29-year-old said last season's final, headlined by Mitchell Owen's brutal 42-ball 108, was still fresh in his mind and would give the Hurricanes confidence. "In my lounge room there is the champions hat. I walk past that most mornings," he said. "That looks pretty good. (It was) just an awesome time with your mates. "If we've got a good attitude towards the games, that is going to carry us far. We know we've got enough in our dressing room to win a championship."
