The Women's Big Bash League (WBBL), also known as Weber WBBL for sponsorship reasons, is a professional Women's Twenty20 cricket league in Australia. Established in 2015, it replaced the Australian Women's Twenty20 Cup, which ran from 2009–10 season to 2014–15. The competition features eight city-based franchises and is branded identically to the Big Bash League (BBL). Originally running alongside the BBL, the tournament was held in December to February before moving to a standalone schedule for the 2019–20 season onwards. It has since been held sometime between October and December. It is regarded as having "changed the landscape of women's cricket" and was the first domestic T20 franchise competition for women.

The collective performance of the Sydney Sixers and the Sydney Thunder in the league's initial years—combining for four titles in the first six seasons—has partially echoed the dominance of New South Wales in the Women's National Cricket League (WNCL), the 50-over counterpart of the WBBL, though neither have won a title since the 2020–21 season. The current champions are the Hobart Hurricanes, who won the 2025–26 season after defeating the Perth Scorchers by 8 wickets in the final.
