Carlos Brathwaite has joined Oval Invincibles as a replacement for Mohammad Hasnain.

Pace bowler Hasnain has been called up to Pakistan's Asia Cup squad, replacing the injured Shaheen Shah Afridi and made his final appearance for the Invincibles against Birmingham Phoenix on August 23.

The 22-year-old played five matches for the Invincibles, taking six wickets but bowling expensively.

Allrounder Brathwaite represented Manchester Originals in 2021, scoring 94 runs at a strike rate in excess of 140 - a string to his bow which Hasnain doesn't have - and picking up three wickets.

A veteran of the franchise circuit, he has also featured in the IPL, Big Bash, PSL, CPL, T20 Blast and Bangladesh Premier League and earned 41 T20 caps for West Indies.

He will be available for Oval Invincibles' final two group matches against London Spirit (August 27) and Manchester Originals (August 31) and the knockout stages, should they qualify. The Invincibles are currently fifth in the table, two points behind third-placed Birmingham Phoenix and four points outside the top-two.
