Rashada Williams and Trishan Holder, who were part of the defending champions Barbados Royals, have been re-drafted into the team for the 2024 edition of the Women’s Caribbean Premier League.

The international trio of Shabika Gajnabi, Cherry Ann Fraser, and Djenaba Joseph, who played for the Guyana Amazon Warriors last season, were also picked by the Royals at the drafts on Tuesday, alongside local all-rounder Naijanni Cumberbatch.

The Amazon Warriors, on the other hand, maintained a strong Guyanese core with the picks of Ashmini Munisar, Sheneta Grimmond, Realeanna Grimmond, Kaysia Schultz, and Nyia Latchmann.

They also drafted Jamaican Kate Wilmott.

The Trinbago Knight Riders, who had earlier signed the Indian duo Jemimah Rodrigues and Shikha Pandey, along with the Australian duo Meg Lanning and Jess Jonassen, made five additional picks at the drafts to complete their squad.

Along with veterans Kyshona Knight, Anisa Mohammed, and Cheaden Nation, they also selected Shunelle Sawh and Jannillea Glasgow.

The three-team tournament will be played from August 21 to 29 at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Trinidad.
