The Sydney Sixers have confirmed their 13-player squad for their upcoming Weber WBBL match against the Brisbane Heat at the Adelaide Oval, with Kiwi all-rounder Amelia Kerr returning to the side after recovering from a quad strain.
The Sixers come into the fixture with strong momentum following their 11-run victory over the Hobart Hurricanes at Ninja Stadium last week.
The Sixers’ captain Ashleigh Gardner led from the front, producing a match-winning spell that included four key wickets, helping restrict the Hurricanes in the closing overs and securing the result for her side.
Kerr’s return strengthens a confident Sixers unit as they prepare to face interstate rivals, the Brisbane Heat.
