Looks like this is a blow out. A few poor games towards the end which is a shame

No surprise the side with the most Englishman is cruising it ;)

This has become my favorite tournament to watch. Somehow find it more enjoyable than watching the IPL. The coverage is fantastic and the quality of cricket has been outstanding!

Gutted it's finished, love watching the BBL over Christmas and New Years.

I think it's the commentary that makes it a better watch than the IPL/Blast though, standard isn't that much better but Channel 10 have nailed the commentary (a bit like Top Gear on BBC it's not so much the format but who's presenting it) which makes the tournament a great watch

Agree on the BBL commentary quality which makes it  for much better viewing than the IPL while competition levels may be similar..

For me it feels purer than the IPL. You always get the feeling theres that undercurrent of corruption in the IPL. Allegedly of course.

Looks like they want to increase the number of games. Not a bad idea but hopefully doesn't kill the product.

Hopefully they stop 'having odi series' overlapping the latter half of the tournament - weakens a lot of sides

I love the relaxed nature of the commentary, almost like blokes down the pub having a laugh.

Channel 9 have the rights next year, unsure whether it will be better or worse, I liked 10s coverage

Gutted to hear this . I can't imagine Tubby , Heals , Slats , Pup , Chappelli and co getting near the quality of banter as the ch10 lads ( could be worse though.....could include Ravi Shastri - oh , the horror ! ) . I wonder what Gilchrist and Ponting will do ( at least M.Waugh has a selectors gig still ). Perhaps this will set Punter free to pursue coaching seriously,  perhaps look towards the the Oz test teams batting coach role ?
I'll also miss Morne Morkel's missus Ros as co host , perhaps she will go back to channel nine....one can only hope . ;) :D
