Jodie Fields’s season significantly has been disrupted by illness and injury

Selection panel chairperson Julie Savage said: “Although it’s disappointing Jodie won’t be joining the team for the ICC Women’s World Twenty20, we respect and support her decision to put the team first. Jodie made it clear that it was just for this tournament and she has every intention of making herself available for the Commonwealth Bank Southern Stars in the future.

“Beth Mooney has been added to the Commonwealth Bank Southern Stars squad that will depart for Bangladesh next month. Beth has had a very strong season with the Konica Minolta Queensland Fire, which culminated in their victory in the WT20 Final. She also travelled to Sri Lanka recently with the Commonwealth Bank Shooting Stars where she performed well with the bat and gloves against Sri Lanka A.”
