Intriguing League

Big Bash League (BBL) is considered to be one of the prestigious franchise league after IPL. The peculiarity of this league is that there is even contest between bat and ball. We witnessed 15 run all-out earlier in the tournament where Adelaide Strikers bamboozled Sydney Thunder.

In this season, the likes of Trent Boult & James Neesham are participating and have opted out of the national duties which is quite mind boggling. It would be interesting to see how the league pans out as we can expect riveting contests.
