Sussex Sign Overseas Seamer Gurinder Sandhu

Sussex Cricket is delighted to announce the additional oversea signing of Gurinder Sandhu for June and July in 2025. 

Sandhu will be available for four games in the County Championship this summer and will also be available for the T20 Vitality Blast if required. 

The signing provides additional cover due to a change in the availability of Jaydev Unadkat in 2025, who will now be available for the final three red-ball games in September.  

The announcement of Sandhu’s signature now completes Sussex’s overseas signings for the 2025 campaign, with Seales, Unadkat, Hughes and McAndrew all returning to Hove this season. 

A previous winner of the prestigious Steve Waugh Medal, the tall fast-bowler is renowned for his ability to generate bounce and swing has featured in 55 first-class matches, taking 151 wickets at an average of 30.52 and an economy of 2.84. 

Speaking on the new addition, Paul Farbrace said: “We are delighted that Gurinder has decided to join us for the four County Championship matches in June and July, he will add real skill and experience to our bowling attack for those games. 

“He is a vastly experienced performer and is very skillful with the ball. The fact that all four games are being played with a Kookaburra ball means he will be very comfortable with that type of ball. 

Gurinder added: “I’m incredibly excited to be joining Sussex Cricket Club and can’t wait to step out onto the field at Hove. 

"I’m looking forward to contributing to the team in both the red and white ball formats and experiencing the rich cricketing traditions Sussex is known for.”
