The tenth edition of the Big Bash League (BBL) is all set to begin in the second week of December. As Australia is gearing up to host the big event, top clubs in the tournament are looking to recruit a few overseas names this year.

This big move can be initiated and all thanks to the new rule which will allow all the teams on the field to have three international players in their playing XIs.  

According to a Cricket Addictor report earlier this week, the Australian Cricketers’ Association agreed to end its opposition to a third international.

With the new rule in BBL, it will add some much-needed star power to the tournament as other players from Australia will be busy with the home series against India. 

Meanwhile, reports in cricket.com.au suggest that the BBL teams are eager to pick three Indian players namely MS Dhoni, Suresh Raina and Yuvraj Singh. 

As Dhoni and Raina retired from international cricket on August 15, 2020 while Yuvraj had also announced his retirement last year. So none of the three players would be binded with any sort of commitment when BBL begins in December.

Earlier this year, Raina had urged the BCCI to soften its stance on releasing players for overseas T20 competitions like the BBL. “I hope the BCCI can get together with the ICC or with franchises and allow players who don’t have BCCI contracts to play in overseas leagues,” Raina had said.

“Yusuf (Pathan), myself, Robin Uthappa – a lot of quality players (could) … go overseas and learn a lot. We aren’t in the BCCI contracts list, some of us don’t have IPL contracts. We aren’t playing international cricket, and the competition in domestic cricket isn’t what it is at the international level,” he added.

Raina had pulled out of IPL 2020 citing personal reasons while Yuvraj is also keen to play in the competition.
