KEATON Jennings is hoping his move to Lancashire can take his game to “new heights”.
Jennings has made the move from Durham on a four-year deal, swapping the North East for the North West and one Emirates sponsored ground for another.
The left-handed opener made six Test appearances for England from early December through to early August, scoring 294 runs.
Unfortunately, he was unable to build upon a debut hundred against India in Mumbai and, ironically, made his final appearance to date against his native South Africa at Old Trafford.
Earlier this week, the 25-year old was back at Old Trafford speaking about life with the Red Rose following seven seasons with Durham.
“I was really excited when I walked through the gates as a Lancashire player,” said Jennings.
“You have to trust the people who have advised you throughout your life for 25 years, and it is the right time for me to make the move.
