Hampshire sign West Indian bowler Fidel Edwards

West Indian bowler Fidel Edwards agrees terms to play for Hampshire during the closing stages of the 2015 season.

Fidel Edwards has agreed to spend the second part of the 2015 campaign with Hampshire.

The right-arm seamer will arrive at the Ageas Bowl in time for the Royal London One-Day Cup match against the Sussex Sharks on Monday, July 27.

"I'm delighted to have signed for such an ambitious club as Hampshire. I hope I can play a part in helping to bring success to the Ageas Bowl this year," he told the club's official website.

"I'm very much looking forward to my first taste of county cricket. It's also an honour to follow other Bajans like Malcolm Marshall and Gordon Greenidge to Hampshire."

The 33-year-old, who has made 55 Test appearances for the West Indies, will be available for all three formats of the game.

He has also joined as a Kolpak player and will therefore not count as an overseas player.
