West Indies international fast bowler Kemar Roach has returned to Surrey for their final four matches in the County Championship.

The 36-year-old played in the club's opening six matches of the season, taking 18 wickets.

Roach played a part in Surrey's last two title-winning seasons and will be available for selection to face Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge on Thursday.

“It’s great to be back at my second home with Surrey and I’ve kept a close eye on the boys from afar," he told Surrey's website, external.

"We know what the goal is and I’m going to give everything to achieve it."

Roach has played in 82 Test matches, 95 ODIs and 11 T20Is for his country, taking a total of 408 wickets across all formats.

Surrey are on course to win their third County Championship title in a row, sitting 35 points clear of second-placed Somerset at the top of Division One.
