The 31-year-old Western Australia and Melbourne Stars allrounder, capped at Test and ODI level in 2017, is an injury replacement for South African Faf du Plessis.
When the competition begins on August 5 most matches will feature an Aussie accent with 13 of the 16 teams signing an Australian. Only one women's team, the Brave, are without one, with 15 Australian women selected.
Birmingham Phoenix, Northern Superchargers and Trent Rockets all used their full complement of three overseas players to sign Australian women.
The in-demand nature of Australia's all-conquering women's team is reflected in the salaries they will receive.
Six will each receive the top-tier Stg 65,000 ($A135,000) fee - Ellyse Perry, Georgia Voll, Annabel Sutherland, Phoebe Litchfield, Ash Gardner and Grace Harris, with a further five collecting the second-level Stg 50,000 ($A102,500).
Fewer of the current leading Australian men have signed up with David Warner, Marcus Stoinis and Steve Smith the big-name recruits. The former will pick up Stg 100,000 ($A205,000), the latter two Stg 120,000 ($A246,000).
There are also seven Australian coaches, four with men's teams, including Justin Langer at London Spirit.
Also signed in Tuesday's final selection were two Englishmen at opposite ends of their careers: James Anderson, who will be 43 when the tournament starts, and Rocky Flintoff, 17, who has joined the Northern Superchargers team his father, former England allrounder Andrew, coaches.
"I'm really looking forward to The Hundred, and I'm really happy to be part of the Manchester Originals squad," Anderson said.
"I've loved my time with Lancashire this season, so I'm excited to have the opportunity to add value in The Hundred.
"When you're at the games you can really see that it does attract a slightly different crowd, a lot of younger people and families, and you can't underestimate how important that is for our game. I can't wait to get out there."
This is the last season before the impact is felt of the sale of large chunks of most teams to private owners. Several have sold stakes to Indian Premier League clubs with Sunrisers Hyderabad buying all of Northern Superchargers from hosts Yorkshire.
Created by the England and Wales Cricket Board to attract new fans the competition has been fiercely opposed by traditional supporters who feel it has drawn resources away from the traditional 18-club county structure and imperils the four-day game.
However, the ECB feel the sale process, which is set to bring in Stg 520m ($A1.1 billion), valuing the teams collectively at Stg 975m ($A2.0 billion), will save the sport from bankruptcy.
However, those 11 counties who do not host a franchise - and most of The Hundred venues also stage Test matches - fear they will be left behind.
