South African batsman Ashwell Prince will return to Lancashire for the 2015 season after reversing his decision to retire.
The 37-year-old announced in March he was to retire from all forms of the game but in September revealed he was considering a u-turn.
"He's coming back, which is great," cricket director and head coach Ashley Giles told BBC Radio Lancashire.
"His record for Lancashire is superb so we'll have that experience."
The former South Africa left-hander passed 16,000 first-class runs last summer, including a career-best 257 not out against Northants in June.
Prince appeared in 66 Tests, 52 one-dayers and one T20 international for the Proteas.
"Ashwell will give us some quality in the middle order," added Giles. "As we all know, a lot happens in 12 months so it's great he's chosen to come back here."
