England wicketkeeper Amy Jones has replaced the injured Phoebe Litchfield at UP Warriorz in the Women's Premier League.

Australia's Litchfield has been ruled out of the remainder of the tournament with a quad injury.

Litchfield leaves with 243 runs - the most by a Warriorz batter and the third-highest in this year's tournament.

Jones, 32, is yet to feature in the WPL, and last played in Australia's Big Bash League on 9 December.

Warriorz are bottom of the five-team table and likely need to win their final two games on Thursday and Sunday to be in contention for the play-offs.
