    Durham have signed Australia batsman D’Arcy Short for this season’s Vitality Blast.

    The 28-year-old, who has played four one-day internationals and 20 Twenty20s for his country, will arrive at the Emirates Riverside in July.

    Short is Durham’s second overseas player for this campaign, following in the footsteps of compatriot Cameron Bancroft.

    Short, the Player of the Tournament and leading scorer in the last two seasons of Australia’s Big Bash League, said: “I can’t wait to get over to Durham and play some cricket, playing in England is something that I have wanted to do for a while and I’m very excited to get started.

    “It’s very much a new experience for me and a challenge to play on some different grounds, wickets, pitches and against some new bowlers.”
