Former Hampshire player Benny Howell has signed a two-year deal with Gloucestershire, which keeps him at the club until the end of the 2014 season.
Gloucestershire CCC director of cricket John Bracewell said: “It is great to have secured Benny on a long-term deal after what has been an extensive and successful trial period.
“Benny has demonstrated great adaptability in all formats which is a great asset to our small squad."
Bodeaux-born Howell, 23, is delighted to have secured a future in the game after leaving Hampshire last year.
Howell said: "It's a good offer and I'm very pleased to have earned it after being given this opportunity by Gloucestershire.
"I believe the club is going places and it is exciting to be among a group of such talented young players.
“John Bracewell has a set plan for the next two years and I am looking forward to being part of it."
Gloucestershire host Essex in the LV= County Championship today – the first day of the Brewin Dolphin Cheltenham Cricket Festival.
