Northamptonshire\u2019s Rob Keogh is set to miss the rest of the season with a serious hand injury.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 26-year-old batsman\/off-spinner has snapped the tendon in his finger and will need to wear a splint to keep it immobile for the next twelve weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It definitely rules him out for the whole of the Steelbacks\u2019 campaign in the Vitality Blast which starts on July 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe splint will keep the finger still \u2013 because if it bends in the first eight weeks, the process will have to start again,\u201d Keogh explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt will then need to go into another cast for a further four weeks, so that takes us nearly to the end of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m absolutely gutted to be missing so much cricket, especially the Twenty20.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI had one of my better seasons personally in the competition last year.  All the players enjoy T20 \u2013 trying to get to finals day with that terrific atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s hugely disappointing that I won\u2019t be involved this time \u2013 although obviously I\u2019ll be supporting the rest of the team and doing a bit of radio commentary as we look to win the trophy again.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keogh took an important catch to send Andre Russell on his way in the Semi- Final against Notts and then went on to hit the winning runs when the Steelbacks beat Durham in the 2016 T20 Blast final at Edgbaston.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NCCC Head Coach David Ripley commented: \u201cI feel for Rob because his season hasn\u2019t really got going with injury through the pre-season period, and now another injury that\u2019s ended his campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe\u2019s started his spell on the sidelines with a very positive response in how he can still continue to work on his bowling – and as also support the rest of the lads in practice and pre-match preparation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe will certainly miss his all-round contributions in both the T20 and Championship cricket  but we\u2019re sure he\u2019ll make a full recovery.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
