Chahal’s spell with Northants last summer was cut short when he returned home because of personal reasons but Northants head coach Darren Lehmann is delighted to see him back.

“Yuzi is a magnificent asset to this squad,” Lehmann said., external

“His record across his career speaks for itself and he brings so much class and experience to the group and for young spinners in the group like Nirvan Ramesh and Stuart van der Merwe, having Yuzi around to guide them will be a huge plus for their game.”

Conway’s second stint at Northants will initially last two months and Lehmann said his compatriot would be an “excellent addition” for next season.

“His form last year was fantastic, and I am excited to work with him for a longer period,” Lehmann said., external

“His ability to take wickets on all surfaces and presence around the team makes him an invaluable player.”
