We are looking forward to a huge year and we look forward to having you along for the ride.
Letβs get stuck into what was a big few days of action for the team, starting with the moment that had the Big Bash and Social Media in a storm on Wednesday night.
Jason Behrendorff at his cat like best.

What a catch!!!! Unbelievable from @JDorff5 #BBL05

.@JDorff5's catch last night was as sharp as his haircut https://t.co/Vt5HolsxNW@ScorchersBBL #BBL05

The leader of Perth Scorchersβ attack was at his brutal best against the Renegades.
His wickets in the 12th over when he knocked off Chris Gayle and Cameron White with consecutive balls proved to be the game changer.

That win had social media talking about a #3peat, but Dorff's screamer also stirred a storm: https://t.co/4yccVNp475 pic.twitter.com/vmrnalVobh

And it earnt him some pretty high praise.
With four wickets at under six an over, his name is right at the forefront for the Australian WT20 World Cup squad.

Great stuff from @JDorff5 in powerplay. 0-6 off 3o (12 dots, 1 four). Bowling straight but at in-between length, so tough to hit out. #BBL05

Check out this great piece on how the big fella has overcome injury to get back to being one of the most damaging bowlers in the game.
Proof that hard work pays off.

Australiaβs number one doubles player introducing the new man in his life to the down under lifestyle before heading to Brisbane where he will try and defend his Brisbane International title (by new man we actually mean his new doubles partner for 2016, Henri Kontinen). Good luck Peersy!

There were no late nights over the New Year period for Lisa Weightman. Her focus is well and truly on the Houston Marathon in two weeks.
Fell asleep at 10:30 after being up at 5am for training! What a party animal?! #Happy2016
