Declaring herself reinvigorated by captaining AUS in the Ashes, Alyssa Healy has halted any talk of retirement by signing a three-year deal with the Sydney Sixers. Off contract since the end of last summer, AAP can reveal she has agreed a contract extension to keep her in the WBBL with Sixers until the end of 2025-26.

Leaving the club was never realistically an option for Healy, with the main decision for Australia’s stand-in skipper being how much longer she wanted to commit for. She has spoken in the past about considering her future, with an ongoing joke between her and husband Mitchell Starc that she has changed her mind multiple times.
Players often continue in franchise cricket after the end of their international career, but Healy’s long-term deal is an indication she is not planning to walk away any time soon.
After taking the reins with Meg Lanning unavailable for Australia’s retention of the Ashes in England earlier this year, Healy will start the summer captaining the side against West Indies.
