Middle-order batsman Chris Benham, who left Hampshire at the end of last summer, has been named in the Unicorns' CB40 squad
A 29-man squad for the Unicorns has been announced ahead of the 2011 Clydesdale Bank 40.
The Unicorns, whose team is comprised entirely of players without first-class contracts, made their debut in last season’s competition and managed three victories, including a memorable six-wicket triumph over Sussex.
Ten members of last season’s squad have been retained, while Chris Benham and Michael Thornely, released by Hampshire and Sussex respectively at the end of 2010, are among the new faces.
