Big Bash League Format

Last year, the top five teams reached the playoffs. The teams in fourth and fifth place played against each other in an Eliminator match. The winner of that match moved on to play the team in third place in another knockout game.

The teams in first and second place played a Qualifier match. The winner of this match went straight to the final. The losing team got another chance—they played the winner of the knockout game in a match called the Challenger.

The winner of the Challenger then faced the winner of the first Qualifier in the final match.
For the 2024-25 season, the Big Bash League will only have the top four teams in the playoffs. The top two teams will play each other in the first playoff match, while the teams in third and fourth place will play in an Eliminator.

The winner of the first playoff match goes straight to the final. The losing team will play the winner of the Eliminator to decide the second finalist.
