Chris Schofield has signed a one-year contact with Surrey, after a successful trail period. The former England leg-spinner started the 2006 season playing for minor county side Suffolk and was offered a short term contract at the end of August.
Schofield, who was released by Lancashire in 2004, featured in two County Championship matches last season and scored 104 runs along with taking eight wickets. He made his England debut in 200 after being awarded a central contract. However he struggled in the two test matches against Zimbabwe and was dropped from the team.
He told the official website, “I am obviously delighted and would like to thank Alan Butcher for giving me the opportunity to play regular first class cricket again and particularly in the fantastic surroundings of the Brit Oval".
