Michael Clarke is preparing to continue his comeback - in Hong Kong.
The former Australia captain, who called time on his career after last summer's Ashes defeat in England, has signed up for the Kowloon Cantons in the two-day Hong Kong T20 Blitz at the end of this month.
Clarke, 35, played the last of his 115 Tests at The Oval nine months ago - when Australia scored a consolation victory, to reduce the series margin to 3-2.
He has since returned in grade cricket, with one outing for Western Sydney in February, and is ready to expand his portfolio again.
Clarke told News Limited: "I am really excited to be playing with the Kowloon Cantons in the upcoming T20 tournament.
"I can't wait to meet my team-mates and experience the city, while also contributing to the game of cricket in Hong Kong - which I know has been coming on leaps and bounds in recent years."
Clarke last played a Twenty20 in the Indian Premier League four years ago, and sat out last winter's Big Bash in Australia.
