South Africa bowler Kagiso Rabada has agreed to spend part of the 2016 campaign with Kent.
The 20-year-old hit the headlines recently as the highest wicket-taker during the Test series against England.
Rabada will be available in June and July, which could see him feature in NatWest T20 Blast, County Championship and Royal London One-Day Cup matches.
"I will play hard and try my best. I want to learn from the experience - particularly bowling in different conditions. Most of all I am looking forward to enjoying the experience," he told the club's official website.
Rabada's signing is subject to receiving a No Objection Certificate from Cricket South Africa.
