County champions Yorkshire have signed India batsman Cheteshwar Pujara as their overseas player after Younus Khan pulled out of his proposed move to Headingley.
The Pakistan international, 37, agreed to a return to the White Rose on a short-term deal in February.
However, Younus has now said that he would be unable to turn down a possible call to tour Bangladesh with Pakistan.
Pujara, 27, has scored 8,724 first-class runs at an average of 57.01.
"We have moved quickly to bring in Pujara and he is a superb player," said director of cricket Martyn Moxon.
"He is an outstanding young Test cricketer, who is hungry to perform in the English game. In the brief conversations I have had with him, he is very much looking forward to be joining Yorkshire and being part of our plans."
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.
