Welsh batter Aneurin Donald is in line for a first-team comeback after two whole seasons out of the county game.

Donald, 25, returns to Hampshire's team for their match against Gloucestershire at the Ageas Bowl.

The former Glamorgan man last played a senior game in September 2019, but suffered an ACL injury in December that year.

A further setback in March 2021 forced him to undergo reconstructive knee surgery.

Donald, who played for England at under-19 level, has scored two centuries in second team games this season.

He gets a call-up because team-mate Joe Weatherley has suffered a fractured hand.
