Glamorgan have signed Scottish International seamer Chris Sole for the next five Vitality Blast matches.
Sole has recently returned from the T20 World Cup where he earned his 50th cap for Scotland and will go straight into the squad for the game against Surrey at The Oval tonight.
The fast bowler, who has been clocked at 150kph in international cricket has played 45 white ball internationals for Scotland as well as appearing for the St Lucia Zouks Caribbean Premier League and the Sharjah Warriors in the ILT20.
Glamorgan, Director of Cricket Mark Wallace said: “We have been tracking Chris for a while and now that his World Cup campaign is over with Scotland it’s great to be able to bring him in to add some pace to our attack and bolster our seam bowling resources in Vitality Blast.”
Glamorgan Head Coach, Grant Bradburn added: “To be able to add Chris Sole’s high quality skills, experience and character into our squad, brings an exciting vibe to our team, as we look forward to playing at The Oval tonight.
“Having worked with Chris previously in Scotland, we know the high value he will bring and I’m sure he will thrive in our environment.”
Chris Sole commented: “I’m very excited to be included in Glamorgan’s Vitality Blast campaign and can’t wait to join the squad at The Oval tonight. Hopefully I can contribute to some on-field success in the coming weeks.”
