Munro, the 35-year-old left-handed top-order batter from New Zealand, was part of the Trent Rockets team which won the men's Hundred title in 2022.

"I've witnessed first-hand how much the crowd get behind the team with the Rockets last summer and when I've been fortunate, or unfortunate, to come up against the Outlaws at home," Munro said. "I'm joining a team which plays an aggressive brand of cricket which suits my style and how I like to go about scoring runs. I want to come in and add my experience to what is already a well-oiled machine."

Munro scored 206 runs in nine matches for Trent Rockets last season at an average of 41.2 and strike rate of 168.85. In addition to The Hundred and previous stints in county cricket with Hampshire and Worcestershire, Durban-born Munro has IPL, PSL, Big Bash and CPL experience, with titles in the latter two tournaments and a total of 365 short-format appearances around the world.

Peter Moores, Nottinghamshire's head coach, described Munro as "a quality player".
