Somerset County Cricket Club on Friday (2 September) announced the signing of off-spinner Sajid Khan for the remainder of the County Championship 2022 season. 

Following this development, Sajid will be the second overseas player for the Taunton-based Club in the ongoing season. Earlier, the Australian players Peter Siddle and Matt Renshaw featured in eight matches, while contributing 27 wickets and 620 runs respectively. 

The 28-year-old will join his fellow Pakistan player, Imam-ul-Haq, in the Somerset squad for the last four Championship matches. 

If talked about his international career, Sajid has scalped 22 wickets in seven appearances, with the best match figures of 12/128 against Bangladesh in December last year. 

With Somerset's front-line spinner Jack Leach unavailable for the next two games, Sajid is expected to be a confirmed pick in the XI.
