Aaron will be replacing John Hastings, who has been called up to represent Chennai Super Kings in the CLT20, Durham said in a statement yesterday.
The 24-year-old will be available for the final two LV=County Championship games against Northamptonshire and Warwickshire. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s an honour for me to play for Durham. I&rsquo;ve always wanted to play county cricket in the UK and am looking to play next season. However, I am happy that the opportunity has come sooner,&rdquo; he said.
&lsquo;Excited to have Aaron&rsquo; Head Coach Jon Lewis said: &ldquo;He&rsquo;s obviously got some good pace and he&rsquo;s young and keen. He didn&rsquo;t start the series (against England) and came into it halfway through and made an impact because he brought genuine pace to their attack, which they didn&rsquo;t really have early on. I&rsquo;m sure Stuart Broad remembers him! It bolsters our seam attack as we are a bit thin on the ground at the moment. We&rsquo;re excited to have him onboard.&rdquo;
