Former West Indies pacer Ravi Rampaul, has signed for English county side Derbyshire on a three-year contract.

Rampaul has been playing in county cricket with surrey for the past two years and does not count as an overseas player due to his Kolpak status.

He will be available in all three formats, as Derbyshire look to continue their rebuilding under Coach Kim Barnett. Rampaul, a world T/20 winner in 2012 can be expected to bolster Derbyshire’s white-ball attack.

Despite not being a regular during his time at the oval, he claimed 59 wickets overall, including 18 in this year’s royal London cup as surrey reached the final. Rampaul last played for West Indies in 2015, having been capped in 18 tests, 92 One Day International and 23 T/20 internationals.
