Hayley Matthews, the captain of the West Indies, will make a one-year offer offer a pre-draft signing for the Melbourne Renegades.
Matthews was chosen as the second get in the draft last year after producing some beautiful performances for the West Indies, including her magnificent pitches against Australia at North Sydney Oval.
Nevertheless, she struggled to simulate that with 255 operates at 19. 61 and a strike-rate of 114. 34 in a memorable time for Renegades, who finished bottom with only two win, although she did end as their joint-leading wicket-taker with 14 at 27. 64.
Crusaders ' hopes for the 2024-25 time may be boosted by the presence of Sophie Molineux after injuries. Additionally, Taylor Vlaeminck is now on contract and has n't participated in the entire campaign.
We have n't succeeded in our goals over the past few years, but with the help of some key players and some fresh faces coming along, I'm confident we can put it all together," said Matthews.
Matthews is the fourth overseas player to be signed ahead of the WBBL draft following Amelia Kerr ( Sydney Sixers ), Nadine de Klerk ( Brisbane Heat ) and Marizanne Kapp ( Melbourne Stars ).
However, in private goes the two Sydney venues have bolstered their speed attacks. Taneale Peschel has signed for Thunder from Perth Scorchers, while Courtney Sippel, who is a member of the Australia A club for second month, has signed a three-deal with the Flyers to leave Heat.
" At the Scorchers, I've been given…every opportunity, but I felt like I'd been stagnant for the last season or two," Peschel said. " I always play the healthy cards and I've always stayed in WA and thought, okay, I'm still getting option, I'll sit here. I think really this year, everything clicked.
" I thought, I've got to try something different. I need to put a stop to playing a healthy cards. Who knows what things like a change to another team can provide my job. "
Peschel, 29, was talked out of retirement before in her career by Lisa Keightley, the past Western Australia and Scorchers coach, who is now in charge of Thunder.
" Taneale was playing team cricket, and she was the fastest bowling it, the best bowling it, and I really thought she had the potential to give it another bite at a higher level," Keightley said.
" Taneale is a highly skilled bowling and has pace that not many have. To enhance our method pacers, it's what we're looking for. She has bowled at crucial times for the Scorchers, in the energy perform and at the death and done actually also. "
