The Big Bash League has kicked off its first free agency period with fast bowler Jason Behrendorff being the first of potentially 52 unsigned players to find new teams in the next 10 days. The Melbourne Renegades secured Behrendorff for the next three seasons, marking the start of the player movement window. The left-armer finished the previous season with 17 wickets, making him an attractive signing for the Renegades. Behrendorff expressed his excitement about joining the Renegades and playing in a city he loves. The Renegades’ general manager, James Rosengarten, praised Behrendorff’s skills and leadership qualities, emphasizing his potential to contribute to the team’s success. The free agency window opened following the conclusion of BBL14, where the Hobart Hurricanes emerged as champions. The signing of Behrendorff is seen as a significant move for the Renegades, who missed out on the finals for the past two seasons. With promising young talent like Jake Fraser-McGurk and now Behrendorff on board, the Renegades are hopeful for a strong performance in the upcoming season. Stay tuned for more updates and signings during the BBL player movement window.
