Sri Lankan batting great Mahela Jayawardene will play for Lancashire in this year’s T20 Blast competition, the English county announced on Monday.
Jayawardene, 39, has played in T20 leagues around the world since retiring from international cricket in 2015 and has previously turned out in England for Sussex and Somerset.
“I’m very excited about joining Lancashire Lightning for the NatWest T20 Blast this summer,” Jayawardene said in a Lancashire press release.
