Additionally, the right-arm pacer Pat Brown will join the Superchargers as a replacement for Harry Brook for the first two fixtures. 

Brook is set to participate in the WI Test series and thus will miss the Superchargers' opening games against Trent Rockets and Southern Brave.

Northern Superchargers will begin their Hundred 2024 campaign against Trent Rockets at Headingley, Leeds on July 26. 

The team’s management has expressed confidence that the replacements will adequately fill the void left by the absent stars and help drive the Superchargers' performance in the tournament.

The Hundred 2024 kicks off on July 23, with defending champions Oval Invincibles taking on Birmingham Phoenix in the tournament opener at the iconic Kennington Oval in London.
