Cameron White, the Australian allrounder, will be returning to Somerset next season after agreeing a new deal with the club. White, who hit two Twenty20 centuries in 2006 including a world record 141 against Worcestershire, will be one of the club's two overseas signings, with a second to be announced at a later date.
Brian Rose, the director of cricket, told the club website: "We are delighted to have reached agreement with Cameron for the 2007 season. He proved himself a one-day match-winner with the bat this summer and I am sure our supporters will share our pleasure in signing him again.
"He is still young and improving so we look forward to helping his development as a world class performer. The prospect of having him and Ian Blackwell in our one-day batting order is tremendous.
"Our other overseas target will also be a batsman so we are looking forward to being exceptionally strong in that department next season."
White also spoke to the website and said: "I thoroughly enjoyed my first English summer of cricket and I hope I can make a strong contribution towards the team's success in 2007."
