The opening game of the Big Bash League's 12th season will take place on December 13 at Canberra's Manuka Oval between Sydney Thunder and Melbourne Stars. The round-robin format will pit eight teams against one another over the course of 61 games, followed by the knockout rounds. Five matches make up the knockout stage: the Eliminator, the Qualifier, the Knockout, the Challenger, and finally the big Final, which will take place on February 4. Due to a decline in interest in the BBL, there has been a greater emphasis this year on recruiting more and more Australian internationals to play for the eight BBL teams.

The most significant acquisition for BBL 12 is still David Warner. Another high-profile signing, Faf du Plessis will play for the Perth Scorchers in place of Laurie Evans for the first seven games. Liam Livingstone will be replaced by Andre Russell for the next four games.
