All-rounder Matthew Waite has joined Worcestershire early from Yorkshire and will be available for their final two County Championship games this season.

But he has now joined Worcestershire on loan and will be available to face promotion hopefuls Nottinghamshire and Middlesex over the next fortnight.

Waite also had a loan spell at Worcestershire earlier this summer.

He took six wickets in his sole Championship appearance for the Pears and also played three T20 Blast games.

“I enjoyed my spell at Worcestershire earlier in the season and had already been looking forward to starting work in November ready for next year,” Waite told the club website.

“To be available for the season’s final two games is an added bonus, and I hope I can make an impact.”
