“What a player to be joining us at this exciting time,” Gloucestershire head coach Mark Alleyne told the club website., external

“He brings a batting versatility with him, being brilliantly effective from one to six and offering spin options in the power play and middle.

“D’Arcy compliments everything we are about and we can’t wait to get him on board.”

Short will be available for the entire Blast group stage.
