Brisbane Heat has released Jemimah Rodrigues from the remainder of the Women\u2019s Big Bash League, the side said ina stement on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Rodrigues returned to India after the Heat\u2019s match against the Hobart Hurricanes 10 days ago due to a pre-arranged commitment to attend Indian teammate Smriti Mandhana\u2019s wedding last weekend. However, the celebrations were postponed due to a health issue concerning Mandhana\u2019s father.<\/p>\n

Heat said Rodrigues will remain in India to support her teammate, and the Heat has consented to her absence for the final four games of the WBBL season.<\/p>\n

Brisbane Heat CEO Terry Svenson expressed disappointment that fans would not see more of Rodrigues playing but emphasized that the decision was made in her best interest.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has obviously been a challenging time for Jemi, so while it is unfortunate that she will take no further part in the WBBL, we were more than willing to agree to her request to remain in India,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Heat club obviously wish her and Smriti Mandhana\u2019s family all the best for the future.<\/p>\n

\u201cJemi told us she was disappointed not to be coming back and has passed on her appreciation to the club and the Heat fans for being so understanding of the circumstances. She has been in touch with the players and wished them all the best for the rest of their games,” Svenson said.<\/p>\n

This was the second season Rodrigues had signed with the Heat, after being the club\u2019s number one pick at the International Player draft earlier this year.<\/p>\n
