Steve Smith and Josh Hazlewood aren’t returning to the Sixers. But the defending champions will have Starc and Nathan Lyon on their books in a major boost for their title defence and the star power of Australia’s Twenty20 competition.

It’s great to be back in magenta after five seasons away from the Big Bash,” Starc said.
“I started at the Sixers at BBL01 and it’s nice to continue that journey at a club . I’ve still been around with my wife Alyssa (Healy) involved with the Sixers,” he added.

Sixers head coach Greg Shipperd said Starc’s return was a homecoming of sorts.
“As with last season when we were blessed with the presence of Steve Smith and Josh Hazelwood. Who both made a huge contribution to our winning effort. We hope Mitch gets to express himself in his home colours again,” Shipperd said.
“He is a maximum impact player who is a world-class T20 fast bowler as well as being in the upper echelons across the other formats,” he added.
