Big Bash League 2021: What Can We Expect This Season?

Alongside the IPL, the Big-Bash league is another T20 cricketing tournament that features some of the best players worldwide. Held in December, this year’s Big Bash League kicks off with the defending champions Sydney Sixers starting their campaign against the Melbourne Stars on December 6th, 2021. To add to the excitement, last year’s runners-up, the Perth Scorchers, will begin their campaign on December 8th, 2021, as they take on the Brisbane Heat.

During the initial years of the tournament, the Big Bash League followed a format that included 32 matches. However, since the 2018-19 season, league matches rose to 56 as each team had to face every other team twice in the tournament.
