Australia all-rounder Ellyse Perry and stand-in captain Alyssa Healy are out of The Hundred due to injuries.

Perry, who was set to captain Birmingham Phoenix, needs four to six weeks rest after suffering a knee injury in Australia's one-day international series against Ireland.

A replacement for Perry, 32, is yet to be named.

Healy fractured a finger and will be replaced by compatriot Phoebe Litchfield at Northern Superchargers.

In another change for Superchargers, Jemimah Rodrigues replaces Heather Graham.

Rodrigues said: "I'm so excited to be back in The Hundred. It's a world-class competition and I've had so much fun taking part in it previously. Headingley is a brilliant ground to play at, with great fans, and I can't wait to be back out there."

The England and Wales Cricket Board have also announced a number of other player changes including replacements for Rashid Khan, Shadab Khan and Heinrich Klaasen, who will leave during the tournament due to international commitments for Afghanistan, Pakistan and South Africa respectively.
