On the other hand, London Spirits signed Kieron Pollard after their attempt to sign Sunil Narine failed owing to the Right to Match card used by Oval Invincibles. However, Pollard won't be available for a part of the season due to his commitments in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL).

Meanwhile, Colin Munro moved base from Originals to Trent Rockets, where he will be joined by the English duo of Tom Kohler-Cadmore and Ian Cockbain. Oval Invincibles picked Rilee Rossouw and Australian batter Hilton Cartwright after using their RTM for Narine to beef up their strong domestic batting line-up, a Cricbuzz report said.

Welsh Fire picked three big overseas players -- Australia's Adam Zampa, South Africa's David Miller and Pakistan's Naseem Shah in addition to some strong domestic cricketers in the form of Joe Clarke and Tom Banton.

Birmingham Phoenix invested their faith in Matthew Wade and Olly Stone, while Southern Brave have picked Quinton de Kock.
