Surrey have signed Australian paceman Dirk Nannes for this summer’s Twenty20 competition.

Nannes, is a specialist in the format and has represented both Holland and Australia in the Twenty20 World Cup and is the leading wicket-taker worldwide in the shortest form of the game.

The 35-year-old played for the Brown Caps last year and has agreed to return as the club’s second overseas player with Indian spinner Murali Kartik.

“As we saw last season in the shortest form of the game, Dirk is still one of the most consistently dangerous and economical bowlers on the world scene. He did a fantastic job for us and I can speak for the whole club when I say we are delighted to welcome him back for another spell,” Surrey team director Chris Adams said.
