Rana Naved-ul-Hasan is on his way back to Hove for the end of the season. Rana has been with the Pakistan team since recovering from an earlier groin injury. He is due back early next week in time to join Sussex in their bid to win the Championship.

Mark Robinson, the Sussex cricket manger, said: "Rana will be back with us next week to replace Yasir Arafat. He's due back in Sussex on Tuesday and he'll be playing a full part in the squad until the end of the season."

Arafat plays his last game for Sussex on September 10 but will be back as a guest of the Sussex team at Trent Bridge for the Championship match.
