Cricket Australia has released updated squad lists for the WBBL and BBL ahead of the 2026-27 season. The contract embargo has now lifted, triggering a rush of signings.
Teams are finalising their lists with both domestic and overseas players. The new contracting rules allow franchises greater flexibility in player recruitment.
The season will see changes to how overseas players are signed compared to previous years.
CricHubb Take
The shift from overseas drafts to direct signings gives Australian franchises more control over roster building than at any point in the competition's history.
