Changes made during the season included:
- On 18 November 2019, Emily Smith was banned for the remainder of WBBL|05 after contravening Cricket Australia's anti-corruption policy with a social media post. Under a special exemption, Tasmanian Tigers member Emma Manix-Geeves was brought into the Hobart Hurricanes squad as a replacement.{{cite web |title=Smith banned for season for Instagram post |url=https://www.cricket.com.au/news/emily-smith-banned-instagram-post-team-line-up-hobart-hurricanes-wbbl-wncl-season/2019-11-18 |website=cricket.com.au |access-date=18 November 2019}}
== Overseas players ==
Harmanpreet Kaur and Smriti Mandhana did not re-sign for the Sydney Thunder and Hobart Hurricanes respectively on account of a conflicting national team schedule, marking the first WBBL season to not feature any Indian-born players.{{Cite web|last=IANS|title=Harmanpreet, Mandhana, Rodrigues set to miss WBBL|url=https://sportstar.thehindu.com/cricket/harmanpreet-smriti-mandhana-jemimah-rodrigues-to-miss-wbbl-2019-20-indian-womens-cricket/article29528639.ece|access-date=2019-11-09|website=Sportstar|date=27 September 2019 |language=en}}{{Cite web|title=Sthalekar ends retirement for WBBL|url=https://www.sbs.com.au/news/sthalekar-ends-retirement-for-wbbl|access-date=2019-11-09|website=SBS News|language=en}} This fixturing clash followed a dispute between the BCCI and CA earlier in the year when Australia's top talent (such as Meg Lanning, Ellyse Perry and Alyssa Healy) were excluded from the 2019 Women's T20 Challenge—an exhibition tournament serving as a potential precursor to a future female equivalent of the Indian Premier League.{{Cite web|date=2019-04-29|title=Perry, Lanning, Healy miss IPL payday|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/26631352/ellyse-perry-meg-lanning-alyssa-healy-miss-ipl-payday|access-date=2019-11-09|website=ESPNcricinfo|language=en}} ESPNcricinfo reported this breakdown was part of a wider disagreement between the two boards that revolved around the BCCI's insistence on CA honouring a touring commitment to play a men's bi-lateral ODI series in India in January 2020.{{Cite web|date=2019-04-26|title=BCCI-CA conflict leaves female stars in limbo|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/26606176/bcci-ca-conflict-leaves-female-stars-limbo|access-date=2019-11-09|website=ESPNcricinfo|language=en}}

The Sixers entered the match having defeated the Hurricanes in their first eleven encounters, holding a WBBL record for the longest head-to-head winning streak. With captain Ellyse Perry sidelined due to a shoulder injury, they faltered early to a score of 5/30. A resurgence, led by Marizanne Kapp's unbeaten 55 off 40 balls, helped Sydney to a total of 7/134. Hobart's chase got off to a shaky start as they found themselves down 4/22 after five overs. A healthy partnership between batters Nicola Carey and Corinne Hall came to an end in the 15th over when Hall was spectacularly caught by former Hurricanes player Erin Burns in the outfield.{{Cite web|title=Erin Burns speaks about unbelievable catch against Hurricanes|url=https://www.sydneysixers.com.au/video/erin-burns-classic-catch-wbbl-05-sydney-sixers-hobart-hurricanes-north-sydney-oval/2019-11-21|website=Sydney Sixers|language=en|access-date=2020-05-19}} With 44 runs required from the final 33 deliveries, Carey went on to make 55 not out while a quickfire 29 by Chloe Tryon sealed victory for the Hurricanes with five wickets in hand and ten balls remaining. In addition to snapping their elongated head-to-head losing streak, the win set a new mark for Hobart's highest successful run chase.{{Cite web|title=Women's Big Bash League - Hobart Hurricanes Women Cricket Team Records & Stats {{!}} ESPNcricinfo.com|url=https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/records/team/highest_innings_totals.html?id=720&team=5649&type=trophy|website=Cricinfo|access-date=2020-05-19}} Belinda Vakarewa, who sliced through the Sixers' top-order, was named Player of the Match for her bowling figures of 4/19.{{Cite web|title=Hobart beat Perry-less Sixers in WBBL|url=https://7news.com.au/sport/cricket/hobart-beat-perry-less-sixers-in-wbbl-c-566550|date=2019-11-20|website=7NEWS.com.au|language=en|access-date=2020-05-19}}

In the first-ever semi-final encounter between the two teams, the Renegades batted first and were slow out of the blocks to be down 2/59 in the ninth over. An ensuing 80-run partnership from 58 balls between Josie Dooley and Jess Duffin ended when the latter was stumped by Beth Mooney off the bowling of Jess Jonassen. A quickfire cameo of 22 off 8 by Georgia Wareham finished the innings promisingly while Dooley, having won a championship with the Brisbane Heat in the previous season, top-scored for the Renegades with 50 not out. The Heat top-order batters of Maddy Green, Jess Jonassen and Grace Harris then "produced fireworks," collectively scoring 126 runs while only facing 79 balls. Molly Strano picked up wickets throughout the second innings, although Brisbane only required 15 runs with 27 balls remaining by the time she claimed her (and the Renegades') fourth. Despite a mini-collapse late in the chase, the Heat hauled in the target of 164 with a comfortable buffer of twelve balls to spare, knocking the Renegades out of the tournament.{{Cite web|title=Heat set up Strikers showdown in WBBL Final|url=https://www.cricket.com.au/news/match-report/second-semi-final-wbbl-womens-big-bash-brisbane-heat-melbourne-renegades-video-live/2019-12-07|access-date=2020-06-03|website=cricket.com.au|language=en}}

The match swung heavily toward Brisbane's favour in the fifth over of the run chase when Sammy-Jo Johnson hit four sixes against the bowling of Devine, though Johnson would be out caught-and-bowled on the last ball of the over.
