Surrey sign Indian batter and all-rounder Mahipal Lomror for the final six County Championship games of the 2026 season. BBC Sport and the Free Press Journal report the move is for Surrey’s concluding run in the Rothesay County Championship.
The sources add context on why Surrey make the change and who else is already in the squad. The Free Press Journal says Surrey have also brought in support following losses to Will Jacks (sidelined by an ankle injury) and Dan Lawrence (recalled to England’s Test squad for a series against Pakistan). It also notes Leg-spinner Rahul Chahar is already part of Surrey and has played two matches. The report quotes Alec Stewart, Surrey’s Director of Men’s Cricket, saying Surrey wanted a batter who can also contribute with spin when required. Lomror, 26, is a Rajasthan Ranji Trophy captain and an experienced first-class player, and the article includes his first-class record and a prior career-best 300 not out for Rajasthan.
