WBBL winning duo on eve of big life changes
A lot has changed since Nicola Carey and Elyse Villani lifted the WBBL trophy last year. The Hobart Hurricanes champions are expecting a baby and are building a house together in Tasmania.
Nicola Carey and Elyse Villani, a successful pairing in the WBBL, are on the cusp of significant life changes. Since winning the 2022 final, Villani retired from cricket and will give birth to their first child in November, following successful IVF treatment. Carey, who recently played for Australia again, is handling the administrative aspects of their home-building project and the arrival of the baby.
The couple, originally from NSW and Victoria, have made Tasmania their home and are committed to nurturing the state's cricket talent. Despite the excitement surrounding the impending changes, Carey admits she is still uncertain about what the future holds, while Villani expresses gratitude for the ease of her pregnancy journey.
