(CMC) – Barbados-born England international Chris Jordan has been signed by the Trinbago Knight Riders for the remainder of the 2024 Caribbean Premier League.

The 35-year-old Jordan, who was snubbed by England’s selectors for the just concluded T20 series against Australia, has been named as a replacement for USA’s Ali Khan, who has been ruled out due to injury. Jordan also turned out for the Knight Riders in 2019, taking seven wickets in five matches.

He could be in action as soon as tomorrow night when the Knight Riders take on the Guyana Amazon Warriors at the Queen’s Park Oval. The Amazon Warriors could also have the services of Australian leg spinner Nathan Sowter for that contest. Sowter has been added to their squad to temporarily replace Captain Imran Tahir, who is currently recovering from injury and is expected to be unavailable for around 10 days.
