D’Arcy Short: Gloucestershire re-sign Australia batter for 2026 T20 Blast

Gloucestershire cricket have re-signed Australia’s D’Arcy Short for the 2026 T20 Blast.

The 35-year-old is the leading run-scorer so far in the competition this season, with 551 – including five half centuries, at an average of 42.38, ahead of the quarter-finals.

The left-hander, who can also bowl spin, joined the club this season for the group stage of the Blast.

“It’s so great to see D’Arcy back for the 2026 Blast. After a slow start, he proved to be such a brilliant addition to the Glorious, becoming the leading run-scorer across the two groups,” said head coach Mark Alleyne.

“He is much more than that, though, as some of his innings can really put the opponent on the back foot.

“His bowling, too, can offer an option to complement our attack, so we look forward to his return.”
