Sussex Cricket on Thursday signed India's Cheteshwar Pujara as overseas batter for the County Championship and Royal London One-Day Cup competition.

"I am excited and honoured to be a part of the historic Sussex County Cricket Club for the upcoming season. I do look forward to joining up with the Sussex family soon and be a part of its rich cricketing history. Over the years I have always enjoyed my time in the UK playing county cricket, so eagerly looking forward to the new stint and hope to contribute to the club's success," said Pujara in an official statement.
