Glamorgan have signed batsman Nick Selman on an initial one-year contract ahead of the 2016 season.
The 20-year-old from Brisbane represented Queensland in both cricket and Australian Rules football at age grade levels before having spells with Kent, Gloucestershire and Glamorgan 2nd XIs in 2015 and winning a professional contract in Wales.
"I'm looking forward to the challenge of helping the club push for promotion into Division One," said Selman, who has dual Australian-British citizenship.
Glamorgan chief executive and director of cricket Hugh Morris said: "We identified we needed more depth to our batting department.
"Nick is a talented young player who will have an opportunity to score runs for the county as he has done in grade cricket in Australia and in Second XI cricket over here.
"Nick has played through the age groups for Queensland and has spent some time in county cricket already, so knows what to expect."
