The stage is set for world-class women’s T20 action as Australia’s marquee domestic tournament returns with the 12th edition of the Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL 12).
Running through late October to early December 2026, the 38-day spectacle features eight top-tier franchises competing across 40 regular-season group stage matches and a 3-match finals series. Cricket enthusiasts in India can look forward to high-octane clashes scheduled across premier Australian venues like North Sydney Oval, Junction Oval, the Perth WACA Ground, and Adelaide Oval.
In India, following every ball of the tournament live is straightforward thanks to extensive television and digital streaming rights. With most matches taking place during early morning and afternoon Indian Standard Time (IST) slots, supporters can easily follow their favorite international superstars and Indian contingent members throughout the season.
For television viewers, the tournament will be telecast live across the Star Sports Network channels. Fans can tune in to enjoy full HD broadcasts complete with multi-angle camera coverage, English commentary, expert tactical analysis, and pre/post-match discussions. Checking local channel packages in advance ensures you won’t miss any early-morning tosses or opening overs.
