India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh has been added to the MCC squad for the Emirates T20 tournament in Dubai in March.
Yuvraj joins a strong squad which already included England Test captain Alastair Cook and international batsmen Michael Carberry and Nick Compton.
The tournament, which takes place on March 20, also involves county champions Yorkshire, Lancashire and Sussex.
Yuvraj featured for the Rest of the World against the MCC in the Bicentenary match last year, scoring an exciting 132.
"I am very excited about being part of the squad for this tournament, and I'd like to thank MCC for offering me the chance to play out in Dubai again," Yuvraj said.
"There are some great players in the squad so we stand a good chance of winning the competition."
The Emirates T20 tournament precedes the day-night Champion County match between MCC and Yorkshire, which acts as a curtain-raiser for the new County Championship season.
