Nottinghamshire bowler Luke Fletcher has been cleared to join Wellington Firebirds for the duration of New Zealand's domestic T20 competition.
Fletcher's uncomparable ability to bowl consecutive yorkers at the death caught the eye of kiwi all-rounder James Franklin who recommended him to team management.
"James Franklin mentioned his name so we started to take a lot more notice of him," said Wellington Coach Jamie Siddons.
"He's a big boy who reverses his yorker prodigiously and executes it pretty well in games,"
"He'll probably bowl one or two overs up front and hit good areas and swing it a little bit, but mainly he gets good bounce. Then when he can execute yorkers from that height at the death he causes people problems."
Fletcher took 13 wickets at an average of 20.92 in Notts Outlaws' run to the quarter-finals of the NatWest T20 Blast.
