The powerful Sydney Sixers player Alyssa Healy faces an uncertain season after having hand surgery very recently as a result of an incident that occurred at her house on Saturday night. The injury raises questions about her crucial role as an Australian and Sixers cricketing legend and casts a shadow of worry over her WBBL campaign.
Alyssa Healy is having to leave the eagerly awaited Sydney Smash encounter due to this unforeseen setback.
According to the Sydney Sixers’ official statement, there are currently little details on Alyssa Healy accident and the extent of her injuries, but further information will be provided. In her remarks prior to the Smash match, Sixers captain Ellyse Perry referred to the incident as a “pretty nasty accident.” Within the following 48 hours, the club hopes to have a better picture of the issue.
Sydney Sixers are dealt two blows.
With only her second participation in the Women’s Big Bash League, fresh prospect Kate Pelle is anticipated to fill in for Alyssa Healy and don the wicketkeeping gloves. Pelle only last Thursday faced the Melbourne Stars in her first game. Alyssa Healy injury was made worse for the Sydney Sixers by the absence of middle-order batter Mathilda Carmichael, who was hampered by a back strain experienced during the team’s Saturday practice.
The Big Bash has given the go-ahead for 18-year-old Frankie Nicklin to be the Sydney Sixers’ thirteenth player for the forthcoming match against the Thunder because crucial bowler Gabby Sutcliffe is out due to injury. Nicklin’s only responsibility will be to fill in as a fielder in case of an emergency. The Sixers’ next game is set for Tuesday night against the Brisbane Heat at North Sydney Oval. The team has decided to wait for the wicket-keeper batter on their roster to fully heal and return to action before making a replacement.
