GLAMORGAN SIGN SHAUN MARSH

Australia batsman joins as overseas player for 2018 and 2019

Glamorgan have signed Australian Test batsman Shaun Marsh as an overseas player on a two-year deal.

Marsh - who has been recalled to Australia's Test squad - will be available in all three formats upon his return to the county he played for in 2012.

The Australian will be available from the start of the 2018 season depending on whether he is picked up in the IPL draft.

Marsh said: "I’m extremely excited to join Glamorgan for the 2018 season.

"I have some great memories of the Club when I played in Cardiff in 2012 and I’m glad to be back.

"Securing my County future for the long term has always appealed to me so I jumped at the opportunity when it came.

"There is a lot of exciting young talent at the Club and hopefully I can put in some good performances so we can bring some silverware to Wales."
