Beau tells the Bears he is at peak of his powers

The hard-hitting Australian all-rounder will make Edgbaston his home at the end of April for a three-month stay, which will see him available for the Rothesay County Championship and all of the Bears’ Vitality Blast North Group games.

The 31-year-old introduced himself on the international stage in January with a stunning Test debut against India. He top-scored in the first innings (57) and was unbeaten on 39 the second time round when he hit the winning runs.

"I feel I've been in really good form for a number of years now," said Webster from his home in Tasmania, where he is playing in the Sheffield Shield. “I've got a good gameplan, helped by my years playing first-class cricket, and clarity around my role.

“I’ve always been able to get a 100 or a five-fer but to be able to do it consistently was the challenge. I've been very pleased with my consistency in the last few years and hope to take that forward with Warwickshire this summer.
