Format

[edit]

This season featured the same number of teams as the previous season but included a new format with an expanded group stage. This new format consists of 35 matches. The new group stage has each team play eight matches, two of which are against the same team. The four best performing teams from the group stage advance to the knockout stage.

The rules for the tournament deviate from those in the laws of cricket where any no-ball will be followed by a free hit.[3]

Signings

[edit]

The official Player Signing Window opened on 9 July 2012 and closed on 20 July 2012. Each team had a salary cap of A$1 million and could sign up to a maximum of 18 players, but no fewer than 14, including two international players. The minimum playing contract was set at A$20,000.[4]

Unlike the 2011/12 inaugural season, Cricket Australia decided that each player had the opportunity to sign multi-year deals[5] with the contract window opening on 9 July 2012 and ending on 20 July.
