T20 will wrap before Australian summer and with international fixtures, there will be no clash. Also, the overseas plan has been postponed by Australian authorities and the general manager of BBL Alistair Dobson said “We really like the idea of an overseas player draft and it’s something that will be on the agenda again next year. But when we’ve considered the continuing challenges with overseas travel and the need to give players and clubs some certainty, we’ve made the call to postpone it for another year.

“There are always different opinions and that’s what we love about sport broadly. Across the board our clubs are aligned on the model, it’s just clear this isn’t the year to try it. We are still incredibly confident we’ll get great players in,”. So now let’s check out the complete details about BBL 2021-22 Schedule (Start Date, Fixtures, Timing, Venue, Match No.).
