In cricket news, two time champions Sydney Sixers’ first ever WBBL head coach Ben Sawyer has confirmed his departure to take up a position as Australia Women’s team full time pace bowling coach. Sawyer will be working alongside head coach Matthew Mott and assistant coach Shelley Nitschke.
In a press release by the Sydney Sixers, Sawyer said ““I’m very grateful for another opportunity with the Australian Women’s Team and can’t wait to again work with the players and support staff.”
“Unfortunately, the job does mean that I won’t be able to continue in my roles with the Sixers and Breakers and that isn’t a decision I have taken lightly.
“It has been an honour and a privilege to work with the Sixers over the first six years of the WBBL, where we were able to win two titles and make four finals. I have worked alongside some wonderful players and staff and will always remember my time fondly.”
Sawyer’s impressive work with the national team has led to his appointment, claims Cricket Australia Executive General Manager Ben Oliver. “Ben re-joins the team after a break that saw him join Cricket NSW and we’re really pleased to have him back on board full-time,” Oliver said.
“We had some incredibly strong candidates apply for the role and it was a tough decision, but Ben thoroughly deserves the opportunity having already proven his worth in his previous stint with the side.
“He’s played a key role in developing what is a world-class bowling group and with over a decade of experience in the women’s game, Ben was a natural choice to join Matthew (Mott) and Shelley (Nitschke) at the helm.”
The latest cricket news came ahead of a busy summer for Australia as they start a series against India which would include a historic day-night Test match, face England at the Ashes, feature at the ICC Women’s World Cup in New Zealand before making their first ever appearance at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham.
