Shaw signs on loan for Gloucestershire
10 April 2019
Gloucestershire Cricket is pleased to announce that Josh Shaw will be returning to the club on loan.
The 23-year-old right-arm seamer, who came through the Academy system at Headingley, will be a familiar sight to many Gloucestershire supporters who saw him perform previously at The Bristol County Ground and at The Cheltenham Cricket Festival .
Josh, who expressed his delight after re-signing for Gloucestershire, said: “I’m pleased that Richard Dawson got in touch with Yorkshire requesting my services once again. I enjoyed my two previous stints in the 2016 & 2017 seasons.
I now feel I understand my game more due to this exposure given to me by Gloucestershire and I will be forever grateful. Hopefully I can push for a starting berth against Derbyshire and put in a good all round performance.”
Shaw’s best bowling figures for Gloucestershire came against Sussex in September 2016 in the Specsavers County Championship match at the Bristol County Ground, with figures of 5/79 off 24 overs.
Shaw will be with the Club for the Specsavers County Championship match against Derbyshire before heading back to play for Yorkshire in the Royal London One-Day Cup competition.
