The 2020–21 Adelaide Strikers Women's season was the sixth in the team's history. Coached by Luke Williams and captained by Suzie Bates, the Strikers played the entirety of WBBL06 in a bio-secure Sydney hub due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] They finished the regular season in sixth place, missing out on qualifying for the finals.
Each 2020–21 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 are classed as any overseas player, or a local player who holds a Cricket Australia national contract at the start of the WBBL|06 signing period.[2]
