In a historic move, the Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) team revealed plans to honor Sri Lanka’s captain, Chamari Athapaththu, by dedicating a special seating zone at the iconic Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). Named “Chamari Bay,” this designated area is set to debut during the upcoming Derby clash against the Sydney Sixers on November 26th.
