The 29 year old will line up alongside the likes of West Indies all-rounder Carlos Brathwaite and England batsman Dawid Malan for the Titans. His opponents will include the likes of Shane Watson, Shahid Afridi and Kumar Sangakkara.
Benny expressed his excitement to play for the Titans for a second successive year. He said, "We have a new coach in Mahela Jayawardene leading us which is really exciting and I can't wait to get going. With this being my second stint in the BPL, I now know what to expect in terms of routine, playing conditions which will make things easier."
On the hopes for the Titans and beyond "I want to go out to Bangladesh and win the tournament. There is no reason why we can't be successful and at least reach the final."
"On a personal level, I want to show what I can do and hopefully that will lead to recognition on an international level."
The Khulna Titans will play 12 matches in total. The final group match will take place on Tuesday 5 December.
The grand final will take place on Tuesday 12 December in Dhaka.
Everyone from Gloucestershire Cricket would like to wish Benny Howell & the Khulna Titans the best of luck!
