Metro Bank One Day Cup: Lancashire have signed New Zealand batter Tom Bruce as their second overseas player for 2024. The seasoned New Zealand batter, with a T20I cap and an impressive first-class average of 49.85, is set to join Lancashire as their second overseas player for the 2024 season.

The scheduling clash with the ICC T20 World Cup presented itself as an obstacle, but Lancashire saw it as an opportunity to secure a player of Bruce's caliber. His availability during the T20 World Cup was strategically factored into the signing.

Mark Chilton, Lancashire's director of cricket performance, expressed his enthusiasm about the acquisition, emphasizing Bruce's availability throughout the season. "This will allow Tom to settle in, become part of the squad and create consistency and stability in our team selections throughout the summer," Chilton remarked.
