Durham: South African bowler Codi Yusuf joins for six Championship games

Durham have signed South African bowler Codi Yusuf for their next six Championship games and the T20 Blast group stages.

Right-arm seamer Yusuf, 27, will be available to make his debut away to Worcestershire on Friday.

He recently took 26 wickets in seven games in his domestic first-class competition for Lions in his best-ever season.

Yusuf arrives as Durham manage an injury-hit bowling attack with Brydon Carse, Sam Conners and a host of others unavailable.

With South Africa batter David Bedingham suffering a fractured toe against Warwickshire, Yusuf can play as a second overseas player alongside Australian Brendan Doggett.
