"It's a huge boost to be able to bring him in - our bowling offense is versatile and able to adapt to any format, but adding a player who has won trophies through his performances takes us up a level."
Brown was primarily employed as a white ball pitcher at New Road, playing only five first-class games for the Pears, but he hopes the move will bring more County Championship opportunities.

"Mickey made it very clear to me how he thinks I can become a successful bowler in Derbyshire with his help and that of the coaching staff."
Derbyshire are bottom of the table of County Championship Division 2 this season, winless in eight games.
