Worcestershire have re-signed New Zealand batsman Colin Munro as their overseas player for the 2015 NatWest T20 Blast.
The 27-year-old was Worcestershire's second-highest scorer last season with 332 runs at an average of 27.76, while he also picked up seven wickets with his medium pace as the Rapids reached the quarter-finals.
Director of cricket Steve Rhodes said: "Colin is going to be a terrific signing because he is a very dangerous and devastating player in T20 cricket.
"In T20 cricket, the way he can disrupt a spinner, and therefore disrupt the pattern and game-plan of the opposition, it is a really effective ploy for us.
"He is a powerful hitter of the ball as well and gives us, along with a few other boundary hitters, some real potency."
Munro, who has played one Test, seven one-day internationals and 14 T20Is for New Zealand, added: "I said when I left last summer that I'd love to come back and play for Worcestershire again. It was an awesome experience."
