After obtaining the hosting rights for The Final, which will take place at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Sunday, December 1, the Melbourne Renegades are one step closer to winning the Weber WBBL|10 championship.
The Renegades, who have never participated in a WBBL final, have earned a chance at their first championship after securing the top slot on the competition table with seven regular season victories.
The Renegades will be joined in the Weber WBBL|10 Finals Series by the Brisbane Heat, Sydney Thunder, and Hobart Hurricanes.
The schedule for the Weber WBBL|10 Finals is:
All WBBL|10 Finals tickets will be available for purchase on Monday at www.bigbash.com.au starting at 10:00 a.m. local time for club members and 12:00 p.m. for the general public in each market.
Seven, FOX SPORTS, 7plus, and Kayo Sports will all broadcast live for every Finals game, while ABC Sport and SEN will provide radio coverage.
The Finals series comes after a very successful home and away WBBL|10 season, in which average attendance at games increased by 21% annually. According to intermediate estimates, the combined viewership of broadcast and streaming has increased by 38% per match this season.
During Finals week, the League will also reveal a number of prizes and merit teams. The WBBL|10 Team of the Tournament, the Young Gun Award, the BKT Golden Cap winners, and the WBBL Team of the Decade will also be revealed.
Early in 2025, the Australian Cricket Awards will honor the WBBL|10 Player of the Tournament.
Cricket Australia's Executive General Manager for the Big Bash Leagues, Alistair Dobson, stated:
The Weber WBBL|10 Finals series is the culmination of our incredible tenth season, which has been marked by an increase in attendance and viewership as well as the rise of new game stars and exceptional performances by longtime players.
"The League is excited to watch one team win the WBBL|10 trophy in Melbourne on Sunday and congratulates the four clubs that advanced to the Finals series."
