Sreesanth has a reputation for being a fiery fast bowler

Warwickshire have boosted their bowling attack by signing Indian paceman Shanthakumaran Sreesanth.

And if the 26-year-old's registration is completed in time, he could make his debut in Sunday's Pro40 game against Leicestershire at Edgbaston.

Director of cricket Ashley Giles said: "It is great to have Sree here.

"We have some very important matches coming up and he will be a great boost to our attack. He has international experience, which is a great asset."

Sreesanth has 50 Test wickets, 59 one-day international wickets and has taken a total of 143 first-class wickets in his career.

He has joined Warwickshire for the remainder of the season.
