'The Big Bash is now an essential thread in the fabric of an Australian summer.' Adam Gilchrist

The Big Bash League's fifth season broke records in crowd numbers, monster hits, classic catches and flying stumps, and 2016-17's BBL 06 is set to up the adrenaline as fans across Australia get hooked on a game played with all the intensity of a footy match, where every run is worth its weight in gold and a misfield could mean the difference between victory and defeat.
