Australia pace bowler Xavier Bartlett will join up with Kent for their first eight games of this season's T20 Blast.

Kent announced the signing of the 25-year-old at the end of February and, under the terms of his initial contract, he was set to be available for five of the opening seven County Championship matches, as well as at least the first eight fixtures of the T20 Blast.

Cricket Australia withdrew him from that planned stint after a busy winter playing in his homeland, but it has now been confirmed Bartlett will link up with Kent for the start of their T20 competition.

The Uganda Cricket Association has appointed Abhay Sharma as the new head coach of the men's national team.

The 54-year-old Indian has signed a three-year deal and will lead the Cricket Cranes at this year's T20 World Cup.

The East Africans will make their debut at the tournament, which is being held in the United States and West Indies.

"I am very grateful for this opportunity to work with a bunch of talented cricketers," he said.

"Having been in Uganda for just a couple of days, it already feels like my second home. The people here are lovely, and the setting is reminiscent of India."

Warwickshire have confirmed the signing of Pakistan all-rounder Aamir Jamal as an overseas player.

The 27-year-old will be available until the end of the T20 Blast group stages and could make his County Championship debut against Nottinghamshire on Friday.

Jamal joins his international team-mate Hasan Ali at Edgbaston.

“He really captured the cricket world’s attention in Australia,” said Warwickshire performance director Gavin Larsen.

Counties have been given until 10 May to indicate if they accept a proposal from the England and Wales Cricket Board for the sale of teams in The Hundred.

As reported by the Telegraph, external, the ECB will sell a 49% stake in each of the eight teams and distribute the revenue to the domestic game.

That figure is up from a previously discussed 30%.

The remaining 51% will be given to the eight hosts of The Hundred teams, who will then have the option to sell some, all, or keep it.

The ECB will retain ownership of the competition itself, which began in 2021.

This month chief executive Richard Gould said the ECB was “starting to pursue” private investment in Hundred teams.
