Simi Singh will make his North County debut this weekend as they play Malahide and The Hills in the T20 Cup.
The Irish international is looking forward to a new challenge at Balrothery.
"I'm really looking forward to the season," Singh told CricketEurope.
"I've always enjoyed batting on North County pitches. They have good tracks with a quick outfield.
"It will be great to team up again with my former Leinster Lightning team mates Eddie Richardson and John Mooney."
