The 2020β21 Perth Scorchers Women's season was the sixth in the team's history. Coached by Shelley Nitschke and captained by Sophie Devine, the Scorchers played the entirety of WBBL|06 in a bio-secure Sydney hub due to the COVID-19 pandemic and, for the second year in a row, were eliminated in the semi-finals. [1] In her first season with the Scorchers, Devine was named the league-wide Player of the Tournament, earning the same award that she won in WBBL|05 while playing for the Adelaide Strikers.
Each 2020β21 squad is to be made up of 15 active players. Teams can sign up to five 'marquee players', with a maximum of three of those from overseas. Marquees are classed as any overseas player, or a local player who holds a Cricket Australia national contract at the start of the WBBL|06 signing period. [2]
Personnel changes made ahead of the season included:
