The paceman comes in (for sub Danny Webber) as the Bulls have Colts on the ropes at 3-29 in reply to Lake Albert's 210.
"The return of Tom Doig from five weeks away will be good, the club is really keen to see him return and let a few go," Lake Albert captain Isaac Cooper said.
Webber (59) led the Bulls' fightback last week as they recovered from 6-72 early.
Cooper said having salvaged their innings, they can't let the opportunity for victory slip.
"The job's only half-done and we've still got another week to go. We need to start well and go on with the job," he said.
Cooper took two of their three early wickets last week, dismissing David Bolton and Luke Richardson. He believes Andrew Dutton (3*) and Keenan Hanigan (who scored 89 last week) hold the key to Colts' hopes.
"After their last game I think Keenan Hanigan as well as Andrew Dutton - those two in the middle order are hard to get rid of they're probably the main ones," he said.
Lake Albert beat the winless Colts by six runs in a Twenty20 fixture in round one. They also enjoyed a one-day victory against Wagga RSL and can climb above RSL in the standings with victory against Colts.
