Canterbury have signed England allrounder Ben Stokes as their overseas player. Stokes will be available for selection for Canterbury's 50-over Ford Trophy match against Otago in Rangiora on Sunday.
Stokes' inclusion was agreed upon by Canterbury Cricket Association and the ECB, and was sanctioned by New Zealand Cricket, a release from the association said. The Canterbury cricket board held an emergency meeting on Wednesday to discuss the prospect of signing Stokes.
