Brigade seem determined to make a major bid for honours this season after the Beechgrove club announced that Iftikhar Hussain was rejoining them following his season in the NCU with Muckamore.

It is no secret that the Waterside outfit felt Hussain was the missing link for them in 2017 and skipper Andy Britton said they were delighted to have him back.

“He’s a quality player and we didn’t want to lose him in the first place so it’s great that he’s coming back,” said Britton.

“Ifti will give us options with both bat and ball and his experience will be vital for us when things get tight.”

Hussain has been at Brigade for eight seasons in total so far during which time he has won every domestic honour with the exception of the Irish Senior Cup.
