England T20 specialist paceman Tymal Mills will play for Hobart Hurricanes in this year's Big Bash League.

The 25-year-old Sussex player, who has previously represented Brisbane Heat in the BBL, has signed a two-year deal with the Hurricanes.

Mills, predominantly a sprint-format bowler due to a serious back injury, has seen his stock rise over the last few years due to his versatility and was purchased for US $2.3m by Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League auction earlier this year.

"I was really pleased when my agent gave me the call and said the Hurricanes were interested in me coming over," Mills told the Hurricanes' official website.
