THE PURPLE ARMY
The Tasmania-based ‘Purple Army’ will storm into the UAE capital with outstanding credentials. This is the team which holds the three highest run chases in the history of Australia’s domestic T20 competition. These seasoned Big Bash campaigners are renowned for whipping up the crowd’s excitement as they take to the field with their field mascot, the fun and fabulous Captain Hurricane.
The team will be led by celebrated batsman George ‘Smiley’ Bailey, who has previously captained Australia’s T201 and ODI teams and is just the second Australian to captain his country in his international debut.
