The 2016–17 Women's Big Bash League season or WBBL|02 was the second season of Women's Big Bash League (WBBL), the semi-professional women's Twenty20 domestic cricket competition in Australia. The tournament ran from 10 December 2016 to 28 January 2017.[3][4] Each WBBL team consisted of a squad of 15 players and was aligned with one of the men's teams in the Big Bash League.[5]

There was greater live television coverage, through Network Ten, with 12 games screened live throughout the season, including 4 stand-alone games on the opening weekend. This included the Sydney Thunder vs Melbourne Stars match, which was shown on Network Ten's primary channel during prime time - a first for stand-alone women's sporting match in Australia.[3] The remaining 47 games were streamed live through Cricket Australia's Live app and Website, and the WBBL Facebook page.[6]

Fixtures

Format of the group stage was a double round-robin tournament, where each team played each other team twice. Games were grouped into weekends, where three-four teams sometimes played in one city over that weekend. This meant that teams hosted matches in their opponent's home city, or in a neutral city. As there were 56 games played over 7 weeks, it was common to have multiple matches in a day (up to five), and matches being played simultaneously at different grounds.

There were 14 double header fixtures with the men's Big Bash League, and the semi-finals and final were also played as a double header.
