Australia's Big Bash League (BBL) is set for a major shift in a bid to lure more international players, with the long-planned introduction of an "overseas player draft" being confirmed from the 2022/23 season onwards.

A report in cricket.com.au said on Wednesday that players will nominate themselves for the draft in three pay categories -- gold, silver and bronze --, while BBL officials will reserve the right to elevate some of them to the platinum category.
