The 2021–22 Sydney Sixers Women's season was the seventh in the team's history. Coached by Ben Sawyer and captained by Ellyse Perry, the Sixers were not scheduled to play any WBBL07 games in their home state of New South Wales due to ongoing border restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] They finished the regular season on the bottom of the ladder, and recorded more losses than wins, for the first time in the league's initial seven editions. The Sixers also ended the tournament with six consecutive losses, mirroring their equal-longest losing streak which occurred at the beginning of WBBL01.[2]
Each 2021–22 squad was made up of 15 active players. Teams could sign up to five 'marquee players', with a maximum of three of those from overseas. Marquees were defined as any overseas player, or a local player who holds a Cricket Australia national contract at the start of the WBBL|07 signing period.[3]
Personnel changes made ahead of the season included:
