The Adelaide Strikers are a cricket team based in Adelaide, South Australia, which competes in the Big Bash League (BBL). The team was established in 2011 as part of the creation of the BBL, a revamp of Australia's domestic Twenty20 competition.^[1] The Strikers have participated in every edition of the BBL, winning the competition once in the 2017–18 season.^[2] As of the end of the 2021–22 season, eighty cricketers have played for the Strikers.^[3] Cricket Australia initially restricted each BBL team to two players from other countries on their lists, expanding this to three players ahead of the 2020–21 season.^[4] As a result, the vast majority of these players are Australian nationals.
