Former Black Caps opener Jeet Raval will make his Counties Manukau cricket debut this weekend when he lines up to face Hamilton in Fergus Hickey action.

Raval, who has played 24 tests for the Black Caps, moved to the Manukau City club this summer and has been selected to represent the association for the first time.

Northern Knights contracted player Katene Clarke returns to the representative fold this weekend as well and will give the side some star power in a crucial match.

Karaka seamer Cameron Jerram is also included in the 12-man squad with regulars Reid Somani and Hayden Dickson unavailable due to injury.

The match is played at Galloway Park in Hamilton.
