Somerset sign Corey Anderson

All-rounder Corey Anderson has agreed to play in this year's T20 Blast for Somerset.

The New Zealand international, who is currently playing at the ongoing one-day international World Cup, will arrive at the County Ground following his country's tour of New Zealand in June.

"I have always wanted to play domestic cricket in England so I am very pleased to have signed to play T20 cricket for Somerset," he told the club's official website.

"I look forward to linking up with Somerset later in the season and continuing the strong link that there has always been between the club and players from New Zealand."

Somerset begin their Twenty20 campaign at home to Sussex on May 22.
