South Africa’s allrounder Chloe Tryon and Australia’s Erin Burns have joined the Guyana Amazon Warriors for the 2024 Women’s Caribbean Premier League (WCPL).
Stafanie Taylor, who led the Amazon Warriors to the final last season, has been retained along with Shabnim Ismail, Karishma Ramharack, Shemaine Campbelle, Natasha McClean, and Shakera Selman.
The team needs seven more players to complete their 15-member squad. Six of these players will be selected from the WCPL draft scheduled for July, while the final overseas player will be announced before the season begins.
Tryon, currently touring India with the South African national team, has played in 98 T20Is, scoring 1136 runs and taking 35 wickets. Burns, who has played 162 T20s, including 117 in Australia’s Women’s Big Bash League for Sydney Sixers and Hobart Hurricanes, has amassed 2429 runs and taken 80 wickets. She was also part of the Barbados Royals team that won the championship last year.
The 2024 WCPL will take place in Trinidad from August 21 to 29, with all seven matches hosted at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy. The tournament, now in its third season, will feature Trinbago Knight Riders, Amazon Warriors, and Royals.
