"Behrendorff comes in as a replacement for Shaheen Shah Afridi, who the Club can confirm will not be returning to Middlesex this season, with his availability in the Blast limited by his international commitments with Pakistan," a Middlesex statement read.

It must be noted Shaheen had to join Middlesex after the ODI series against West Indies.
