The group will also take part in a sportsmen’s night on the night before the game before taking to the field as part of the all-abilities curtain-raiser game ahead of the T20 match.
Julia Price has just finished coaching the Hobart Hurricanes in the WBBL while Cosgrove is the most recent of the group to have played in Australia, taking to the field for the Sydney Thunder in the BBL during the 2014-15 season.
The group will also spend time doing coaching clinics at schools along with other community events.
The start time for the T20 match has been confirmed with the first ball to be bowled at 5.15pm. More players are set to be announced in the coming weeks ahead of the match.
