Wbbl season

Big Bash League: Brisbane Heat skipper Jess Jonassen has lauded veteran Shikha Pandey's impact on the side’s campaign in the ongoing WBBL Season 10, adding that the veteran India fast-bowler has really added a lot of value by talking about various intricacies of the game.

Shikha, who hasn’t been a part of the Indian team since after the 2023 Women’s T20 World Cup, has picked 12 wickets in 10 matches for the Heat in the current season and landed a spot in the WBBL’s team of the tournament, making her the only Indian player to do so.

"Having the international class of someone like Shikha Pandey around, who can talk fast bowling (with local players), talk tactics, talk plans, I think that's something that's really added a lot of value to our pace bowling attack, particularly, that I feel like a lot of those girls have really thrived upon," said Jess Jonassen, the veteran Australia left-arm spinner, to cricket.com.au.
