Kieron Pollard, Andre Russell and Quinton de Kock were among the large abroad names endorsed in the men’s Hundred draft.

Pollard has joined London Soul while his West Indies partner Russell was endorsed by Manchester Firsts and South Africa global De Kock held by Southern Fearless.

Yet, various other global players have not been agreed upon. David Warner, Aaron Finch, Chris Gayle and Babar Azam are among those to have passed up a major opportunity.

All things considered, groups spent large on homegrown players who will be accessible. Joe Clarke (Welsh Fire), Tom Banton (Welsh Fire), Liam Dawson (London Soul), Tom Kohler-Cadmore and Laurie Evans (Manchester Firsts) have all been endorsed in the top compensation section.

The ladies’ opposition vows to be ritzy with 19 of the 22 players from the new Ladies’ Reality Cup last included.

Australia’s Reality Cup-winning chief has finished paperwork for Trent Rockets while Britain opener Tammy Beaumont has changed from London Soul to Welsh Fire where she will be skipper.
