The Big Bash League was founded by Cricket Australia in 2011–12 to serve as a domestic Twenty20 competition in Australia. There are eight teams in the league: the Adelaide Strikers, Brisbane Heat, Hobart Hurricanes, Melbourne Renegades, Melbourne Stars, Perth Scorchers, Sydney Sixers, and Sydney Thunder.
