Worcestershire have signed Nottinghamshire spinner Fateh Singh on a three-year contract following his short-term loan move to the One-Day Cup during the 2024 season.

Slow left-armer Singh, 20, who finished the season with another loan spell with Northamptonshire, is now tied to Worcester until the end of the 2027 campaign.

“This is a crucial step as we continue to build our team,” Worcestershire chief executive Ashley Giles said.

“Strengthening our spin department has been a priority. Fateh demonstrated his potential during the One-Day Cup.”

The former England Under-19 international made his first-class debut when Northants took on Yorkshire in the final Division 2 match of the season – but will now be in contention to play in Division 1 for Worcestershire, who remained comfortably in place, finishing at the highest level. position since County Championship cricket moved to a two-tier structure in 2000.
