Somerset have secured the services of Abdur Rehman as their overseas player for the 2015 season.
It will be a second stint for the Pakistani spinner at the County Ground, having taken 27 wickets during his time at Taunton back in 2012.
"Abdur Rehman is a really good signing for us. He is a quality spin bowler and will hopefully help us to turn some of those draws into victories," Somerset's director of cricket Matthew Maynard told the club's official website.
"Abdur will be coming back into an environment he is familiar with and playing alongside teammates who he knows from the time he spent here a few years ago. He is a more than useful lower order batsman, a terrier in the field and is available in all three formats."
Meanwhile, 34-year-old Rehman added: "I am very happy to be going back to play for Somerset. I hugely enjoyed my time at the County Ground two years ago and I look forward to playing for the county again."
Rehman has taken 99 wickets in 22 Test outings for Pakistan.
