The Rebel Women’s Big Bash League is returning on October 25 for its sixth season with action-packed matches at North Sydney Oval, Sydney Showground Stadium and Blacktown International Sportspark.
The Big Bash is Twenty 20 cricket, consisting of fast and furious games of about three hours duration where each side bats and fields once. For Rebel WBBL 2020, the Brisbane Heat will be looking to take out their third consecutive tournament, but they’ll meet fierce opposition from previous winners the Sydney Thunder and the Sydney Sixers, along with teams from Adelaide, Hobart, Melbourne and Perth.
Watch out for Sixer star player Alyssa Healy (who holds the record for the highest individual score in an international women's T20 match) and Indigenous all-rounder Ash Gardner. Keep a close eye too on the Thunder’s left-handed captain Rachael Haynes and schoolgirl prodigy Phoebe Litchfield.
Due to Covid restrictions the season is operating in a hub model and therefore exclusive to Sydney, so this is a chance to immerse yourself in a full season of exciting live cricket. Tickets are only $10 with kids under 15 admitted free*, so it’s an affordable spring sports experience you can bring the whole family along to.
Cricket Australia are working in line with the current health advice and government measures to keep matches safe.
*Kids' ticket free when purchased in conjunction with a full priced adult ticket, subject to availability. Ticket and entry conditions apply.
