Cricket Australia has announced the list of centrally contracted players for the 2020-21 season. As reported by InsideSport earlier, Marnus Labuschagne and Joe Burns are among six new faces on Cricket Australia’s list of centrally contracted men’s players for the 2020-21 season, while state teammate Usman Khawaja has missed out for the first time in five years.
Labuschagne and Burns have been added along with Ashton Agar, Mitchell Marsh, Kane Richardson and Matthew Wade, players who all missed out on the initial list 12 months ago but earned upgrades during the year.
Khawaja, Nathan Coulter-Nile, Peter Handscomb, Marcus Harris, Shaun Marsh and Marcus Stoinis have all missed out having been part of the initial list last year.
Peter Siddle (retired) and Ashton Turner (omitted) have also been overlooked after they had earned upgrades during the year.
A total of 20 men and 15 women were given the central contract for the next 12 months. While the men’s list sprung quite a few surprises, the inclusion of Tahlia McGrath in the women’s list has also baffled a few. Here’s how the two lists look like:
CA men’s contract list: Ashton Agar, Joe Burns, Alex Carey, Pat Cummins, Aaron Finch, Josh Hazlewood, Travis Head, Marnus Labuschagne, Nathan Lyon, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Tim Paine, James Pattinson, Jhye Richardson, Kane Richardson, Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc, Matthew Wade, David Warner, Adam Zampa
CA women’s contract list: Nicola Carey, Ashleigh Gardner, Rachael Haynes, Alyssa Healy, Jess Jonassen, Delissa Kimmince, Meg Lanning, Tahlia McGrath, Sophie Molineux, Beth Mooney, Ellyse Perry, Megan Schutt, Annabel Sutherland, Tayla Vlaeminck, Georgia Wareham
