#4 The brevity of the tournament
Currently, there are eight teams in the IPL with the possibility of two more teams being added in the near future. The tournament runs for around six weeks and there are 60 games in total. After the first few weeks, audience interest may reduce a bit and then pick up again in the final rounds.
On the other hand, the BBL is also played by eight teams and it goes on for around six weeks as well, but the number of games is only 43. There are gaps in between and games are not played every day, which makes it possible for viewers to maintain an interest in the tournament. The rest days ensure that people do not have an overkill of T20 cricket.
This is one thing that the BBL has been able to accomplish with smart scheduling and could be one of the reasons why it becomes the primary challenger to the IPL's dominance.
