South African batter and women's team captain Laura Wolvaardt has recommitted to the Adelaide Strikers, penning a contract for two more seasons.

Strikers Head Coach, Luke Williams said, “Laura is a world-class player and a vital part of the Strikers family, so we are ecstatic to have her sign on for two more years.
"Her skill with the bat, combined with her leadership and experience, is invaluable. She has consistently performed under pressure and played a huge role in our previous championship successes. We know she will be a key pillar for us as we build towards a strong WBBL|11 season and beyond."
