    Yorkshire have signed the West Indies batsman Kraigg Brathwaite.

    The 24-year-old opener put on a commanding display at Headingley to win the second Test against England in August, scoring a century for his nation.

    He will join Yorkshire for the final two games of the Championship season.

    Head coach Andrew Gale spoke on BBC Radio Leeds: "Kraigg played exceptionally well here and if you can get runs at Headingley then you can do it anywhere."
