Background
editOn 8 November 2021, Cricket Australia (CA) confirmed that the inaugural BBL First Nations round would be played between January 8 and 14, 2022.[3] The matches were played at the venues in Adelaide, with the players of all teams wearing Indigenous kits designed by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders artists, which are portraying unique stories.[4] The round was played intending to mark the tournament's commitment to deepening education and meaningful connection with Indigenous People of Australia.[5]
On 30 December 2021, the 27th match of the regular season between Perth Scorchers and Melbourne Stars was postponed,[6] following a COVID-19 positive case in the Stars' camp.[7] On 5 January 2022, the 36th match of the regular season between Brisbane Heat and Sydney Sixers was postponed,[8] following COVID-19 positive cases in the Heat's camp.[9] The 39th match of the regular season between Adelaide Strikers and Melbourne Stars was also postponed.[10]
