The 8th edition of the Women’s Big Bash League is set to start from October 13, 2022. A total of 8 teams will take part in the tournament, and every team will face each other twice in the league stage. There will be a total of 56 league games across 13 venues in Australia.
There are some star players taking part in the tournament with Sydney Sixers boasting a star-studded lineup of players such as Elysse Perry, Alyssa Healy, Suzie Bates, etc. Sydney Thunder have signed the English duo of Amy Jones and Tammy Beaumont. West Indian duo of Hayley Matthews and Deandra Dottin will also make their presence known.
Perth Scorchers Women won the tournament last season by defeating Adelaide Strikers Women in the final. Perth’s Beth Mooney was the highest run-scorer of the last season with 547 runs, whereas Adelaide’s Amanda Wellington was the highest wicket-taker with 23 wickets.
The Women’s IPL is set to start next year, and the WBBL will be a great audition for the players to get some good deals in the tournament. Women’s Big Bash League has to be the best Women’s T20 league around at the moment.
The members of the Indian contingent have certainly lowered in the WBBL this season with only three players participating. Harmanpreet Kaur will be playing for Melbourne Renegades, Jemimah Rodrigues will be playing for Melbourne Stars and Pooja Vastrakar will be playing for Brisbane Heat.
