Big Bash League 11: Get to Know the Eight Participating Squads
The end of the year only means one thing for the Cricket fans, and that is the commencement of one of the biggest Cricket tournaments in the world, the Big Bash League. And as in the last 10 editions of the series, eight franchises will be battling against each other in a round-robin format in a span of two months.
A total of 56 matches out of 61 will be played in the preliminary round. Once completed, the top four teams will move on to the knockout round of the tournament, which comprises the last five games — Eliminator, Qualifier, Knockout, Challenger, and the Final, scheduled to take place on January 28 next year.
But before we get ahead of ourselves, let’s first get to know the eight participating squads and its complete lineup for 2021-22’s Big Bash League 11.
