The Adelaide Strikers Women's team is a cricket team based in Adelaide, Australia that will compete in the inaugural women's Twenty20 Women's Big Bash League commencing in December 2015.[4] They will be one of 8 founding teams. They are a franchise aligned with the current men’s competition (Big Bash League) - adopting the same colours and team name. The team is coached by Andrea McCauley.[5]
Cricket Australia CEO James Sutherland said in a media release, "We see T20 as the premium format of the women's game and the WBBL is an exciting concept that will increase the promotion and exposure of women's cricket."[4] Sutherland also said, "Our existing female domestic competitions are arguably the strongest in the world, with the continued success of the top-ranked women's team, the Commonwealth Bank Southern Stars, a testament to that."
On 15 September 2015, Shelley Nitschke announced that she will be returning from retirement to take on a dual role with the Adelaide Strikers, as both a player and an assistant coach.[6]
