Denton set for Vics debut
October 13, 2004

FORMER Tasmanian paceman Gerard Denton is set to make his first-class debut for Victoria.

Denton was named today in the 12-man squad for the Pura Cup game with South Australia starting at Adelaide Oval on Saturday.

Denton, 29, played 32 first-class matches for the Tigers, claiming 85 wickets at 37.78 before transferring to Victoria for the 2004-05 season.

With leg-spinners Shane Warne and Cameron White both in India with the Australian squad, the Bushrangers will rely on an all-pace attack as they start the defence of their Pura Cup title.

Peter Roach replaces retiree Darren Berry as wicketkeeper.

Opening batsman Jason Arnberger is unavailable with a back injury.

The team: Jonathan Moss (capt), Gerard Denton, Matthew Elliott, Ian Harvey, David Hussey, Mathew Inness, Brendan Joseland, Michael Lewis, Andrew McDonald, Peter Roach, Graeme Rummans, Allan Wise (12th man to be named).

It will definitly be different to see a Vics team without Berry. Good luck to them this year.

Wasn't Denton a former Australia A player?
