Northamptonshire have signed Netherlands international fast bowler Brandon Glover on a three-year deal.

Glover, 22, was born in South Africa and is close friends with Northants batsman Ricardo Vasconcelos.

He was the leading wicket-taker in Twenty20 internationals in 2019 and helped his country qualify for the T20 World Cup in Australia later this year.

"I'm real excited to get playing," Glover said. "County cricket is renowned as being one of the best."
