New Zealand all-rounder Amelia Kerr, who had exited the Women’s Big Bash League due to a mental health reasons, returned to her team Brisbane Heat to resume her association. Kerr was a key member of the Heat’s title-winning team in the fifth edition of the WBBL, and continued to play for the side in the next edition as well, but left the community in shock when she pulled out of the national side as well as the seventh edition of the WBBL in mid-2021.

Kerr has been an outstanding performer for the Brisbane Heat and has scalped 31 wickets in the 30 games at an exceptional economy rate of 5.80. Kerr had revealed that she had been going through mental health issues even during the 2020 season of WBBL. She reached a state of mind where she could not battle it any longer, and thus the decision of pulling out of the sport in all formats.

“We’re excited to have her back in the squad this summer and I think her experience and insights will be very valuable for the group. Her batting during the World Cup was impressive in spite of some challenging conditions and it will be great to see her continue to develop her skills further. Our young players will really enjoy the chance to learn from ‘Melie’ as they play alongside her,” Brisbane Heat coach Ashley Noffke was quoted by ESPNcricinfo.

I’m looking forward to coming back to Brisbane and having some fun: Kerr

Kerr returned to the sport before the Women’s World Cup which was held in March-April 2022. She had a good run throughout the event scoring 201 runs and scalping nine wickets in the seven games that she appeared in. Upon her return to the WBBL, Kerr said:

“Ash and the team were in regular contact while I was having a break, and the Heat have been nothing but supportive. I kept an eye on how they went last year and so I’m looking forward to coming back to Brisbane and having some fun with the Heat girls.”

She was chosen New Zealand Cricket’s female ODI player of the year in April following a season in which she scored 554 runs and took 16 wickets. Before returning to the Brisbane Heat, she will be a part of the London Spirits in The Hundred tournament, and will also represent her national side in the Birmingham Commonwealth Games.

Ashleigh Barty who has played for Brisbane Heat Women in the inaugural edition of the Women Big Bash League won the Australian Open title. She defeated American Danielle Collins to become the first Australian woman to win the title after a gap of 44 years. Former Australian Grand Slam champion Evonne Goolagong Cawley presented her the trophy who is Barty’s idol.

Her winning moment was also enjoyed by Chris O’Neil who was the last Australian to win the men’s or women’s singles title in Melbourne. Barty ended 2021 as the top-ranked player for the third consecutive year and joined the likes of Steffi Graf, Martina Navratilova, Serena Williams, and Chris Evert as the only women to achieve the feat.

After the 2014 US Open, she took an indefinite break from Tennis. She has been playing tennis from a very young age and was traveling for a very long time. She wanted to live her life like a normal teenage girl and at that time it struck her to try her hands in cricket. Barty met the Australian women’s cricket team in early 2015.

She decided to meet Andy Richards, who was the coach of Queensland Fire. Richards was really impressed with the way Barty approached the game and quickly started training her. Within a few months, Barty began playing for the Western Suburbs District Cricket Club and competed in Brisbane’s Women’s Premier Cricket Twenty20 league.

Ashleigh Barty was really impressive for the Brisbane Heat Women

Western Suburbs went on to win the tournament and Barty made 37 runs off 39 balls in the final. After her decent performance, Brisbane Heat signed her for the inaugural edition of the WBBL. In her debut match, Barty made 39 runs off 27 balls against Melbourne Stars. She remained a regular in the team as the Heat went on to win seven out of their 14 games in the tournament.

After her stint with the Heat, Barty returned to play Tennis once again and won numerous titles including the Roland Garros title in Paris. She was scheduled to return to Paris to defend her title in 2020 but she decided not to take part in the tournament due to the ongoing global pandemic. She went on to play golf instead and won the Brookwater Golf Club women’s title.
