BBL hero in frame for first Aussie cap in Caribbean
Hobart's Big Bash League hero Mitch Owen is on the cusp of a first Australian cap after being selected in the Twenty20 International squad to tour the West Indies. It comes as Test spinner Matt Kuhnemann earns selection in his first T20I squad and out-of-sorts Jake Fraser-McGurk is dropped from the set-up. Owen's call-up continues a whirlwind start to the year for the 23-year-old, who powered the Hurricanes to their first BBL title with a century in the final against the Sydney Thunder. He finished as the tournament's leading run-scorer and earned a maiden call-up to the IPL as Punjab Kings' injury replacement for Glenn Maxwell, though was dismissed for a second-ball duck in his only game. Owen brings versatility to the 16-player squad, able to open the batting or slot into the middle order for the five matches played across Jamaica and St Kitt's after the three-Test series. Swashbuckling young gun Fraser-McGurk joins veteran allrounder Marcus Stoinis and paceman Xavier Bartlett in missing the T20 squad for next month's matches. Fraser-McGurk withdrew from the IPL when it went on hiatus after managing only one score in double figures from six innings with Delhi Capitals. Chief selector George Bailey suggested all hope was not lost ahead for those who missed selection as Australia prepares for next year's T20 World Cup. "There are a number of players outside the squad who can till force their way into the mix," he said. "The connection, role development and combinations we will have as options are growing nicely as we build towards the World Cup." Kuhnemann's inclusion continues a great calendar year for the tweaker, who was Australia's best bowler in the dominant Test series win over Sri Lanka. He joins as back-up to Adam Zampa but is a chance for game-time if decks point to needing two front-line spinners. Multi-format superstars Pat Cummins, Travis Head and Mitch Starc are unavailable for the T20Is, opting to return home after the Test matches. But allrounders Cameron Green and Cooper Connolly have been included in the squad on return from injury. AUSTRALIA'S T20 SQUAD FOR WEST INDIES TOUR: Mitch Marsh (capt), Sean Abbott, Cooper Connolly, Tim David, Ben Dwarshuis, Nathan Ellis, Cameron Green, Aaron Hardie, Josh Hazlewood, Josh Inglis, Spencer Johnson, Matt Kuhnemann, Glenn Maxwell, Mitch Owen, Matthew Short, Adam Zampa.

Kuhnemann bowls Glam to three-day win over Middlesex
Rothesay County Championship Division Two, Sophia Gardens, Cardiff (day three)Glamorgan 383: Northeast 122, Carlson 109; Higgins 5-59, Roland-Jones 4-95 & 8-0Middlesex 155: Holden 42; Gorvin 4-39& 235 (following on): Robson 66, Roland-Jones 57; Kuhnemann 6-53Glamorgan (22 pts) beat Middlesex (2 pts) by 10 wicketsMatch scorecard Australian spinner Matt Kuhnemann bowled Glamorgan to a three-day win over Middlesex by 10 in a one-off appearance, took six for 53 as Middlesex were dismissed for 235 after following knocks of 66 from Sam Robson and 57 from Toby Roland-Jones only served to avoid the innings defeat, with Glamorgan needing only eight to win. Glamorgan claimed three Championship wins in a row for the first time since 2015, and it was the first time they have ever won three consecutive games with a day to home side owed much to the first innings stand of 228 between centurions Sam Northeast and Kiran Carlson, with Middlesex unable to find similar application in their second successive defeat. The Glamorgan flag was flying at half-mast in memory of former Glamorgan groundsman Len Smith as Middlesex followed on 228 runs visitors surprised everyone with Robson and Max Holden racing along at a run a ball for the first hour in an opening stand of hit seamers James Harris and Andy Gorvin out of the attack with a series of ferocious drives, as they were unable to find the lengths that served them so well the previous day with the former England man racing to a 40-ball looked like the T20 Blast had come early, but as Glamorgan switched their attack round, it was left-arm spinner Kuhnemann who made the breakthrough as Holden was well taken at short leg by Asa Tribe for had blasted 13 fours when he was trapped lbw by Kuhnemann, who then bowled Leus du Plooy, and with Luke Hollman edging Timm van der Gugten to slip Middlesex had lost four wickets for kept chipping away after lunch with Ben Geddes trying to get after Kuhnemann but being well taken by Zain ul Hassan back-pedalling at mid-off for second spell was a considerable improvement as he got rid of Ryan Higgins for 19 and Zafar Gohar, brilliantly caught by a leaping Chris Cooke. Kuhnemann completed his five-for as Jack Davies (12) swung to mid-wicket before Roland-Jones launched a magnificent counter-attack, smashing three successive sixes into the grandstand off Gorvin, and speeding to 50 off just 33 scores were level when Roland-Jones swung Gorvin to a diving Harris at deep square leg, and fittingly Kuhnemann had the final word when Dane Paterson was taken by Gorvin at mid-on. Glamorgan knocked off the eight needed in 14 balls as Middlesex ran round to salvage a potential points deduction for their over-rate. Middlesex now start their T20 Blast campaign against Sussex at Lord's on Thursday 29 June, while Glamorgan's opener sees them travel to face Middlesex at Northwood on Sunday, 1 June.
