Chair of Selectors George Bailey said: “The NSP look forward to the return of Pat, Josh and Nathan. They have worked extremely hard, individually and with the SSSM teams, over the past few months to return from their respective injuries.
“While this is a 13-player squad, we have players prepared and available should any adjustments be required in the lead up to these matches.
“As previously stated, the volume of cricket and schedule across the next 12 months are likely to present further opportunities across all formats for many players.”
