The 2023/24 BBL fixture was officially released at 10am AEST today, but some details were released exclusively to News Corp papers beforehand.
Apart from the reductions of the number of matches (40, 10 home and away games per team) and a new finals format, a major change is that there will be no Christmas Eve fixture this year.
Fox Cricket will again show every match live.

And there’s the reason why I won’t be watching it. Diluted the quality of the broadcast being simulcast.

I’ll be interested to see how this goes, and what the quality of the American pitches will be like.

Fake news mate. They just have high performance and development partnerships. All the other teams are owned by IPL franchisees.

2023 WBBL fixture was released this morning.
Ringwood in Melbourne’s outer east will host a WBBL match for the very first time, on Wednesday afternoon, November 8, between Stars and Sixers.
Also, Fox Cricket’s commitments to show ICC Cricket World Cup from India means some WBBL matches will be shown on a different Fox Sports channel, with details to be confirmed later.

This is just trash scheduling. Weekday afternoons in the suburbs - that’s good for neither TV or families attending.
They should run a shorter WBBL with prime time and weekend slots and full TV coverage - and run a separate domestic T20 comp with the WNCL teams to create the developmental league for the players, where you can do these weekday matches and lower tier venues.
It’s hardly a “big bash” in Ringwood at 3pm.

Problem as well and a major failure on CV’s part is that they didn’t install lighting at Citipower, thus meaning all games there are 1 or 3pm.
