Windies opening batsman Kraigg Brathwaite has signed up with Nottinghamshire for remaining five matches of the 2018 County Championship. Brathwaite will be available for Nottinghamshire's immediate next fixture, which is against Hampshire on Sunday (August 19). The county side then plays Surrey at The Kia Oval before three home games against Yorkshire, Essex and Somerset at Trent Bridge.

"I'm excited about getting going at this great club and hopefully I can help the side push for the Championship title in the run-in," Brathwaite said. "Being able to call Trent Bridge home for a few weeks will be a great feeling and I'll be looking to give my best for the team across the final five games.
