Zimbabwe captain Brendan Taylor and Surrey county skipper Rory Hamilton-Brown will both play for Wellington in this year's HRV Cup Twenty20 competition.
The pair will join Sri Lankan spinner Muttiah Muralitharan as Wellington's overseas players during the HRV Cup.
Taylor will play the full HRV Cup campaign, while Muralitharan will play the first five rounds, starting on December 18 against the Auckland Aces. Hamilton-Brown will join the team for the remainder of the campaign.
Cricket Wellington director of cricket Robbie Kerr said he was delighted with Wellington's overseas playing roster. "Murali's record over a number of years speaks for itself,'' Kerr said. "He is the greatest Test and ODI wicket taker of all time and to have him in the Firebirds this summer is very exciting.
"Having two captains join our squad will add hugely to the leadership within our team during the HRV Cup competition.''
