Brisbane Heat will kick off the Big Bash League 2023-24 season with an opening clash against Melbourne Stars on Thursday, December 7. Five-time champions Perth Scorchers will be looking for a hat-trick of titles and will open their campaign with a tough away game against Melbourne Renegades on December 10.
Top cricketers Glenn Maxwell and Marcus Stoinis will be part of Stars’ opening game against Heat’s captain Usman Khawaja and star batter Marnus Labuschagne. Australia are set to host Pakistan in the three-match Test series starting on December 14 so the majority of the senior players are expected to miss the tournament after opening week.
Eight teams will clash in 40 home and away games with each team playing twice against three other teams. Sydney Thunder and Melbourne Renegades will clash against each other in the last group-stage game on January 17, 2024, and the final will be played on December 24. Venues for the knockout games are yet to be finalized by organizers.
