Rockets add Santner and Garth to roster
Nottingham Post
|January 20, 2026
NEW ZEALAND spinner Mitchell Santner and Australia seamer Kim Garth have become Trent Rockets' final two direct signings for The Hundred in 2026.
-
Left-armer Santner, 33, has taken more than 250 shortest-format wickets at an average of just 23.96, and has been his country's white-ball captain since December 2024.
Alongside him, 29-year-old Garth is set for a second, separate stint in The Hundred, after previously turning out for Manchester Originals (now Manchester Super Giants) in 2024.
Santner has also had a spell with Brave, in 2023, but more recently has appeared for Northern Superchargers (now Sunrisers Leeds) across the past two seasons of The Hundred.
On his most recent visit to Trent Bridge in September 2023, he was awarded Player of the Match after his figures of 3/30 helped New Zealand to a six-wicket IT20 win over England.
Seamer Garth previously represented Ireland, where she was born, before switching allegiances in 2020 and has gone on to take 52 wickets in 44 matches for Australia.
