The 2022–23 Perth Scorchers Women's season was the eighth in the team's history. Coached by Shelley Nitschke and captained by Sophie Devine, the Scorchers entered WBBL|08 as defending champions after claiming their maiden title in WBBL|07.[1] They finished the regular season in fifth position and consequently failed to qualify for the finals.

Squad

[edit]

Each 2022–23 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|08 signing period.

Personnel changes made ahead of the season included:[2]
