Strikers name squad for Perth clash as Shamsi joins BBL|15 campaign
The Adelaide Strikers have confirmed a 13-man squad for their January 4 showdown with the Perth Scorchers at Optus Stadium, featuring a major new addition.
South African wrist-spinner Tabraiz Shamsi has signed with the Strikers for the remainder of BBL|15 and will travel to Perth with the squad.
He joins as an overseas replacement player, with Luke Wood and Jamie Overton unavailable for finals after being named in England’s T20 World Cup squad.
The 35-year-old left-armer brings a wealth of experience from 70 T20Is and 55 ODIs, including career-best figures of 5/24, and is South Africa’s all-time leading wicket-taker in T20Is.

A double call-up to England’s World T20 Cup squad has thrown an unexpected spanner in the Adelaide Strikers’ potential finals plans
England allrounders Jamie Overton and Luke Wood will be unavailable for a possible Adelaide Strikers BBL|15 finals campaign after being named in England's T20 World Cup squad.
The pair were selected in the 16-man squad just prior to the new year, and have also been picked for England's white-ball tour of Sri Lanka which commences on January 22.
With preparations for both the upcoming Sri Lankan tour and T20 World Cup overlapping with the KFC BBL|15 finals campaign, which runs from January 20-25, it means the Strikers would be without two of their most seasoned white-ball veterans in the hunt for a prospective second BBL title.

The Gauteng High Court has ruled against Cricket South Africa (CSA) and in favour of Tabraiz Shamsi in a landmark judgment which will be pored over with interest around the global game for its potential implications for freelance cricketers.
Shamsi, the left-arm wristspinner who has played 127 international matches across formats, withdrew from his contract with MI Cape Town in the SA20 earlier this year in order to take up offers in other T20 leagues overseas, specifically the ILT20 in the UAE, and the Big Bash League in Australia.
