Meanwhile, the club are hoping White's compatriot Trent Copeland could return for a second spell later in the summer.Northants had a dismal time in the T20 competition last summer, winning only one game and finishing sixth in their group. I'm delighted at the way things have gone and especially for Stephen and [head coach] David Ripley. Stephen's led from the front and has united the entire dressing room," Smith added.Copeland has made an excellent impression so far this summer with his steady seam bowling, and also scored 70 off 67 balls batting at number 11 in their Championship Division Two win over Essex.It will be a batsman if all goes according to plan and we're hoping a significant one for the club.He is only due to stay with the club until 8 June, but Smith confirmed they would be inviting him backNorthants could have had back-to-back wins in the Championship, with only rain denying them victory in their opening fixture against Glamorgan.We have five Championship matches from August 21st. We haven't discussed it with Trent yet but he's enjoying it here - though I'm not sure he's enjoying the temperatures right now as you would expect.We hope to be a bit more competitive in t20 this year, which was a real disappointment in 2012 for everyone said Smith. He's been a great asset as a player and if we can get him back, great.
