Lizelle Lee and Preez have re-signed to play in Hobart after withdrawing last season. The pair had previously played together in the Melbourne Stars.

Du Preez, “I can’t wait to return to Australia” :-

“I can’t wait to return to Australia,” said du Preez. “I love the Big Bash. Moving to the Hurricanes last season was a big decision for me, but I can honestly say that I had a great time on and off the field.

I got to know a lot of girls really well, and as we get to know each other better as a team, our cricket has really improved as well.

Mignon du Preez, “We are a very good Partners” :-

“We have the same team that we entered into WBBL 08 last year, plus some really cool additions, and knowing first hand what quality players like Junior Villani and Lizelle Lee can bring to T20Is. I think that puts us in a pretty good position.”
