Auqib Nabi joins Surrey for three County Championship matches

Jammu and Kashmir pacer Auqib Nabi will play three County Championship matches for Surrey, starting with the Yorkshire fixture on September 2. He's expected back in India in time for the four-day series against Australia A that begins September 22.

Selectors set up the stint so the 23-year-old can get used to English conditions ahead of India's Test tour of New Zealand later this year.

Nabi has taken 47 wickets in 18 first-class matches at 24.3. Surrey confirmed the short-term deal on Friday.
