The BBL14 season was full of thrilling moments, from Mitch Owen’s historic knock securing Hobart’s first-ever BBL title to Glenn Maxwell’s heroic 90-run statement keeping the Stars’ season alive. The season achieved record-breaking viewership numbers, with a 24% year-on-year increase and one billion minutes streamed across platforms. The Grand Final between Hobart and the Thunder was the most-watched decider and match in BBL history. The Stars and Renegades’ thrilling showdown was the most-watched regular-season game, with the Stars, Strikers, and Scorchers being the most popular teams. Fox Sports Managing Director Steve Crawley praised the season as “outstanding” and Cricket Australia’s Alistair Dobson described it as “remarkable” with great cricket and memorable moments. The success of BBL14 follows record audiences for other sports seasons, and fans can look forward to more exciting coverage with the upcoming Women’s Ashes series and AFL season. Kayo Sports CEO Julian Ogrin highlighted the exclusive AFL coverage and upcoming Test match in the Women’s Ashes series as part of the Foxtel Group’s ‘Summer of Cricket’.
