Kent have announced the signing of West Indian international Brendan Nash for the 2012 campaign.
The Australian-born batsman will join the County Championship Division Two outfit for the entirety of their season after his central contract with the national team expired.
Kent head coach and former Windies captain Jimmy Adams told the club's official website: "I am pleased that Kent have been able to secure the services of Brendan Nash.
"Brendan's ability, coupled with his experience at every level of the game, will undoubtedly be of tremendous value to the club especially given his availability for the entire season.
"I look forward to welcoming Brendan to Kent in the next couple of weeks in preparation for the season opener in early April."
Nash has made 21 Test appearances for the West Indies, scoring two centuries, including one against England in 2009.
