Henry Brookes did not feature in Middlesex's win against Gloucestershire in the opening round of the County Championship.

Gloucestershire have signed seamer Henry Brookes on loan from Middlesex for the next five games of the County Championship. The 26-year-old will be available for home matches against Durham, Lancashire, Kent and Northamptonshire, as well as an away trip to Derbyshire.

"We spoke a lot about using the loan market to supplement the bowlers we already have and help us through a busy Championship period," Gloucestershire director of cricket Jon Lewis said. "Henry will be with us until the start of the Vitality Blast, and we're delighted to have him on board."

Brookes moved to Middlesex in 2024 and has taken 33 first-class wickets in 14 matches for the county. He began his career with Warwickshire, making his debut for them aged 18.
