Northants Cricket has signed Rory Kleinveldt and Richard Levi for the full English 2015 season.
Kleinveldt, a former South African international, brings plenty of experience with him, while Levi returns to the club for a third consecutive season.
“It will be a great boost to know we will have two international players available to us for the whole season,” said Northants Cricket head coach David Ripley. “We are excited about Richard establishing himself in the four day team as well as having his firepower in our one day team. He has had a great winter, named player of the competition in the South African Ram Slam.
“Rory will be a terrific bowler in English conditions. He has just featured in the South African side against the Lions, where he was amongst the wickets on a pretty flat pitch. We look forward to managing his work load over the season to get the best out of him.
“Richard and Rory know each other very well, and I’m sure they will enjoy their time together in Northamptonshire.”
