WBBL|11 Schedule Unveiled: Action-Packed Season Set to Start November 9 with Triple-Header

WBBL|11: Full Schedule and Key Highlights for the 2025 Women’s Big Bash League Season

The WBBL|11 is all set to bring fireworks this summer as Cricket Australia announces a thrilling 43-match fixture over 35 days, starting on Sunday, November 9 and concluding with the Final on December 13.

The tournament will begin just a week after the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup in India, offering fans a seamless transition into the domestic T20 extravaganza.

This year, the tournament opens with a blockbuster triple-header featuring a final rematch between Brisbane Heat and Melbourne Renegades at Allan Border Field, followed by two high-stakes clashes in Brisbane and Perth.

No ‘Stadium Series’ This Season

Unlike previous editions, the Stadium Series — which featured matches at iconic venues like the MCG, SCG, and Gabba — won’t return this year. According to Big Bash Leagues General Manager Alistair Dobson, logistical hurdles and a renewed focus on core home venues led to the change. However, marquee grounds like Adelaide Oval will still feature prominently, and larger stadiums may host the finals.

Broadcast and Accessibility

This year’s WBBL continues its strong broadcast footprint. Foxtel and Kayo Sports will stream all matches, while Seven Network and 7plus will air 20 games live, including the finals — ensuring fans won’t miss a moment.

The tournament structure remains consistent:

• Top team after the group stage hosts the Final (Dec 13)
