Sarah Dunkley rejoins Brisbane Heat for WBBL|12 after contract embargo lifted
England spinner Sarah Dunkley returns to Brisbane Heat for WBBL|12, boosting the franchise's spin attack after the contract embargo was lifted.
England spinner Sarah Dunkley has rejoined the Brisbane Heat ahead of Weber WBBL|12 after the contract embargo was lifted last week. Cricket Australia confirmed the signing on Monday, bringing the 26-year-old back to the Queensland-based franchise she previously represented.
Dunkley strengthens the Heat's spin options as the side prepares to defend its strong record from WBBL|11 when it reached the final. The signing forms part of the club's list finalisation process now underway across all eight WBBL teams.
Full squad details for every franchise are now available as clubs complete their recruitment ahead of the December tournament.
CricHubb Take
Dunkley's return strengthens a franchise that already reached the final last season, showing how overseas spin can be retained across cycles when the domestic core remains intact.
