Knight, the England captain, is eligible for retention by Sydney Thunder having originally been due to join last season before being ruled out by injury.

Ecclestone, who is the No.1-ranked bowler in ODIs and T20Is, was a key part of Sydney Sixers' run to the final in 2022-23 where she claimed 20 wickets at 17.90 with an economy of 6.29 while made her runs at a strike-rate of 159.49.

Alice Capsey, one of the most exciting young batters in the game, is also in the mix and played for Melbourne Stars last season.
