Green will be covering for the hard-hitting South African Cameron Delport, who will be unavailable until August 17. Green will be available for the matches against St Kitts & Nevis Patriots, St Lucia Stars, Barbados Tridents and Jamaica Tallawahs.
The 24-year-old Green has played 27 Twenty20 matches with 149 runs and 22 wickets under his belt. He has played for Sydney Thunder at the Big Bash in Australia and the Lahore Qalanders in the Pakistan Super League.
Guyana Amazon Warriors Head Coach Johan Botha said: “Chris Green is an exciting T20 talent and we are very pleased to welcome him as cover for Cameron Delport. As an effective top-order batsman and a canny off-spinner, he will add a great deal to our squad in the first half of the season.”
The Warriors will commence their hunt for the title come August 9 when they lock horns with the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots at the Guyana National Stadium, Providence.
