JOHANNESBURG: South Africa batsman Theunis de Bruyn has been roped in by Surrey for their next two matches of the County Championship Division One.
Confirming the news, De Bruyn said that he would play for English county Surrey in their upcoming two Championship matches against Somerset and Yorskshire.
