Derbyshire batsman John Sadler will spend the winter in Australia as part of a £1m England Cricket Board scheme.

The 26-year-old will play cricket in Western Australia and is one of 18 players taking part in the project.

Sadler told the club website: "I was extremely keen to impress with my new club but I slipped out of form.

"Hopefully a winter of cricket in Australia will see me get runs under my belt, get my confidence back and return in 2009 at the top of my game."
