Lock it in: all the final squads for WBBL|06

After an unprecedented period of player movement, we take a club-by-club look through the WBBL squads

After an action packed contracting period, all eight squads for the sixth edition of the Rebel WBBL are now locked in.

There has been unprecedented levels of player movement, with some of the game's biggest stars joining new clubs.

Perth Scorchers have been one of the biggest playmakers, signing last season's two highest run scorers in Sophie Devine and Beth Mooney, while the Sydney Thunder have made some handy additions to their list. 

The tournament will take on a whole new look this year thanks to the COVID19 pandemic, with WBBL|06 to be played entirely in a Sydney hub.

All eight teams will be housed in a WBBL Village at Sydney Olympic park, and the 59 matches will be played at five venues across the city.

In great news, the world's best overseas stars will again be part of the Big Bash, with eight players from South Africa, seven from New Zealand, six from England and two from the West Indies part of this year's action.

As per previous seasons, clubs have an allowance of up to five marquee players and a maximum of three from overseas.
