Hampshire have signed Pakistan left-arm seamer Shaheen Afridi for next year's Vitality Blast.
The 19-year-old, who has played six Tests, 19 one-day internationals and 10 Twenty20s for his country, is expected to be available for the duration of the tournament.
Afridi told the club's official website: "I have always enjoyed playing in England in front of the fantastic fans and I look forward to joining this historic club for my first experience of county cricket."
Hampshire director of cricket Giles White added: "A lot of the best sides in T20 cricket possess a very good bowling attack and Shaheen adds an extra dimension to the group we have, offering excellent accuracy, pace and lots of variations.
"He's an emerging young talent in world cricket so we're delighted to have him on board for next summer's Vitality Blast."
