England fast bowler Chris Jordan has joined Hero Caribbean Premier League franchise Trinbago Knight Riders as a replacement for Pakistani Muhammad Hasnain, who was recalled to Pakistan a week ago.
Guardian Media understands that the fast bowler, who is a native of Barbados, will join the team in Barbados on Wednesday and will be in contention for a spot in the TKR line-up when they take on the Barbados Tridents at the Kensington Oval from 6 pm on Thursday.
Jordan, who played for England against the West Indies earlier this year during the Colonial Medical Insurance Cup in the West Indies, brings a lot of experience to the fast bowling unit at TKR. The 30-year old last played for England against Pakistan in May this year but was overlooked for the ICC World Cup and was not used against Australia in the Ashes series recently. Jordan has played in 39 T20 internationals and has taken 47 wickets at an average of 25.61
