"After spending time in Adelaide last year I believe the Strikers team and the whole of South Australian cricket has huge potential and I'm looking forward to being part of taking it forward and winning a few trophies," Paine continued.<\/p>\n

"Having been on the losing side when the Strikers defeated Hobart Hurricanes to claim their first title win in BBL|07, I can vouch for the fantastic atmosphere created by the fans at Adelaide Oval.<\/p>\n

"And the backing the boys received last season was a large factor in the success we experienced in the second half of BBL|13, so we're working hard to build on that momentum in the coming summer.<\/p>\n

"I believe we have an immensely talented and versatile squad which we will finalise over the next few weeks."<\/p>\n
