Perth Scorchers all-rounder Ashton Agar has confirmed the club's ambitions to expand globally following a record-setting Big Bash League (BBL) season. In a press conference on July 13, 2026, Agar stated that the Scorchers are exploring opportunities to establish a presence in international T20 leagues, including potential partnerships or franchises in the UAE and the UK.
The Scorchers set a new BBL record in the 2025-26 season with 10 consecutive wins, culminating in their fourth championship title. Agar, who played a key role with both bat and ball, emphasized that the move is part of a broader strategy to grow the brand and develop cricket talent worldwide.
"We've built something special here in Perth, and now it's time to take it global," Agar said. "We're looking at ways to share our expertise and connect with fans around the world." The expansion plans are still in early stages, with no specific timelines or locations confirmed.
