An overseas player draft will be introduced to the Women's Big Bash League this year as part of the biggest contracting shake-up in WBBL's history.
The Big Bash confirmed on Wednesday the WBBL would follow in the footsteps of the BBL, which brought in a draft for the 2022-23 season.
Significant changes have also been made to the definition of 'marquee player', shaking up the way clubs can build their 15-player lists.
Foreign players will nominate for the draft across gold, silver or bronze tiers.
