What’s changed for BBL 10?
The BBL has brought up some interesting rule changes for this edition of the league – Power Surge, the X-factor and Big Bash Boost.
- Power Surge : The power surge basically splits the batting powerplay into two slots. One, a mandatory four-over block at the beginning of the innings. The remaining two overs have to be taken by the batting team according to when they deem it right to boost the total.
- X-Factor : The x-factor is the super sub-rule that was tried in international cricket, only with slight changes. The teams can name upto 13 players initially and and after the first 10 overs of the game, the teams are free to bring in any one of the extra two players as a substitute.
- The Bash Boost : The Bash Boost splits the target into two basically. The chasing side can choose to go after the whole total or try and give up and instead chase the 10-over score that the opposition put up to gain a bonus point. This rule change can affect the very essence of a game as teams can now choose just to chase the 10-over score to get a point.
Who are the major 2021 BBL team signings?
There have been some very interesting signings in the Big Bash League this season. A lot of overseas talent have come in to boost the quality of the league. BBL Teams have looked to stock up on some of the best players to aim to stay ahead of the race.
- Nicholas Pooran – The Melbourne Stars have splurged to bring in one of the best young T20 cricketers in the world right now in Nicholas Pooran. The West Indian wicket-keeper batsman is a terrific striker of the ball and a middle-order batting talent to keep an eye on this season.
- Morne Morkel – The Brisbane Heat went smart and acquired Morne Morkel, the former South Africa international, as a local player to keep their overseas slots intact. Morkel has a permanent residency in Australia and qualifies as a local player. A terrific bowler in his heydays, Morkel will be a major coup for the Heat this season.
- Dawid Malan – The Hobart Hurricanes have banked on the most reliable T20 batsman in the world in England’s Dawid Malan. The no.1 ranked ICC T20 batsman in the world, Malan will add a lot of depth to the Hurricanes batting line-up for the season.
- Imran Tahir – The Melbourne Renegades have stocked up on some terrific players this season, but the most interesting signing is perhaps that of the veteran South Africa leggie, Imran Tahir. A wonderful player in this format of the game, Tahir brings a wealth of experience with him and is a genuine wicket-taker in the middle overs.

Our top three picks for the Big Bash League 10 season. No room for Perth Scorchers …
Sydney Sixers
Sydney Sixers, the current defending champions in the Big Bash League, is the strongest team this season. While they already have a brilliant player base, they added to it some outstanding players this year. Mitchell Starc makes a return to the league with the Sixers while they also brought in Jason Holder, Dan Christian and Carlos Brathwaite to strengthen the all-round quality. The Sydney Sixers have the best chances of winning the season according to our predictions.
Melbourne Stars
The Stars boast of a plethora of batting quality and have increased their bowling depth for the season. With key players such as Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis and Nicholas Pooran available for a lot of the season, the Melbourne Stars are good enough to win the title this time. They were finalists in the last two seasons and could go one step further this time.
Melbourne Renegades
The Renegades have terrific quality in the line up this season and are boosted by the availability of Aaron Finch throughout the season. Rilee Rossouw, Imran Tahir, Shaun Marsh and James Pattinson are excellent recruits. The Melbourne Renegades are third in our prediction list to win the title.
