It’s a busy time of the year for sport and the new Big Bash League (BBL13) season is not too far away. The 13th BBL instalment will get underway on December 7th with a match between the Brisbane Heat and the Melbourne Stars. Action will continue into the new year until the finals begin on January 19th and conclude with the Grand Final on January 24th.
Interestingly, the BBL have reduced the BBL13 fixture this season for a number of reasons. It should provide a higher-quality tournament, with more star players available to hold every fan's attention throughout the season. There will be just 40 home-and-away matches for the regular BBL13 season, with a new four-match finals system to be introduced, featuring the top four sides during the season. There are eight fewer double headers this season, with no matches scheduled for Christmas Eve or Christmas Day.
