The Amazon Warriors announced the signing of all-rounders Chloe Tryon from South Africa and Erin Burns from Australia. These acquisitions were part of the franchise's efforts to strengthen their squad ahead of the tournament.
The three WCPL franchises had largely completed their rosters through retentions and pre-signings. The defending champions, Barbados Royals, have drafted in wicketkeeper Rashada Williams and batter Trishan Holder from their squad last year. They have also added seam-bowling all-rounder Shabika Gajnabi, seamer Cherry Ann Fraser, and batter Djenaba Joseph, who all previously played for the Amazon Warriors.
The Trinbago Knight Riders have made strategic additions to their squad as well, drafting Kyshona Knight, veteran spinner Anisa Mohammed, and young wicketkeeper Shunelle Sawh from their squad last year. Batters Jannillea Glasgow and Chedean Nation, who were with the Royals in WCPL 2023, have moved to TKR for the upcoming season.
This year's WCPL will be held in Trinidad from August 21 to 29, with all seven matches scheduled to be played at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy.
