A deal has been signed by veteran Pakistani all-rounder Abdul Razzaq with the Hampshire Hawks, England's current T20 champions, as they prepare to defend their title in the Friends Provident Trophy in June.
Shahid Afridi is the other Pakistani player in the team.
Razzaq expressed excitement to be a part of the Hampshire team and play along Afridi.
PakPassion. net quoted Razzaq, as saying," I can't wait to put the Hampshire shirt on and do well for them. I'm really excited at being given this opportunity by such a high profile team and hopefully Shahid and I can helpHampshire to the title."
Razzaq, who has a strike rate of just under 150 in T20 cricket, said their stints with Hampshire would offer a good opportunity to warm-up before the hectic series against England and Australia later in the year.
Razzaq further added," Shahid and I are good friends and it will be great to have him around this summer with me. I'm sure it will be ideal preparation for us both before we join the Pakistan squad for the series against England and Australia." (
