Ashwell Prince

              
The 35-year-old was the county's overseas player in 2012, although his 1,008 Championship runs were not enough to keep Lancashire in Division One.Head coach Peter Moores said: "Ashwell's commitment to Lancashire has always been strong and his return is a real boost to the whole squad. Prince has played 66 Tests for South Africa, scoring 3,665 runs at an average in excess of 41, and has also appeared in 52 one-day internationals. I was part of the team that went down. I want to be part of the team that's going to fight our way back to where we belong, Prince told the club website. His experience will be invaluable to me as a coach and he will help to accelerate the development of some of our most talented home grown players.The 2011 county champions begin their Division Two campaign on 10 April with a home game against Worcestershire, who were also relegated at the end of last season. The left-hander has agreed a two-year deal, subject to successful visa and registration applications, and will be available for all three domestic competitions.
