"We have been in discussions with Harmanpreet about joining Sydney Thunder for WBBL02. At the moment no contract has been signed by the player or the club," said team boss Nick Cummins.
BCCI president Anurag Thakur had hinted yesterday that Kaur was set to become India's first women's cricketer to play in an overseas T20 league.
The all-rounder, herself, too claimed that she had offer from three teams but went ahead with Sydney Thunder.
"I had offers from three teams. Then I went through their performances, compositions and everything else. I picked Sydney Thunder because firstly they are the champions and secondly there is only one overseas player in their team - Stefanie Taylor from West Indies. The rest are players from their domestic circuit," Kaur was quoted as saying by bcci.Tv.
