West Indies' Stafanie Taylor among eight marquee signings confirmed for new cricket format The Hundred

Cricket star Stafanie Taylor is among eight marquee signings confirmed for the women's teams in The Hundred.

West Indies captain Taylor has joined Southern Brave and fellow West Indies all-rounder Deandra Dottin will go to London Spirit.

South Africa's Mignon du Preez will join the Manchester Originals in the 100-ball tournament while Australians Rachael Haynes, Elyse Villani and Jess Jonassen have signed for Oval Invincibles, Trent Rockets and Welsh Fire respectively.

England's Georgia Elwiss is joining Birmingham Phoenix and her international team-mate Alice Davidson-Richards will move to Northern Superchargers.

These new confirmed signings mean each of the eight teams in the tournament have announced four players each. 

The teams have until May 31 to confirm their 15-player squads before the five week competition begins in July.
