Guyanese all-rounder Keemo Paul has signed with the Hobart Hurricanes Stars in Australia’s Big Bash League.

Paul, who is presently in New Zealand with the West Indies will not have to quarantine when he arrives in Australia because of travel arrangements between the two countries, reports said.

"I am really excited to be joining Hobart for the upcoming BBL, and I am very grateful for the opportunity," said the 22-year-old allrounder.

"I have always been a big BBL fan and an avid watcher of the tournament, and I cannot wait to join up with the Hurricanes group. I have spoken to Ricky here at the IPL about Hobart and Tasmania, and he has spoken really positively about the team and the competition.”

Paul scored 77 runs and took nine wickets for the Guyana Amazon Warriors during the Hero 2020 CPL season this past summer.
