South African opener Herschelle Gibbs is the latest player to sign up for Shropshire's annual Twenty20 event.
Gibbs, who once scored six sixes in an over for South Africa in a World Cup tie against the Netherlands, will play for the Lashings World XI in Telford.
Twenty20 organiser Bryan Jones told BBC Radio Shropshire: "It's a big signing for us."
The Lashings World XI line up with Shropshire, Cheshire and Staffordshire at Wrekin College on 10 July.
And Jones added: "With big hitters like Gibbs I'm sure the excitement of our previous Twenty20 days will be repeated."
The first semi-final will start at 1030 BST.
