Isn't this too early to create BBL 17/18 thread?

Not at all.
If you go through the news there are plenty of new signings and transfers this season; which definitely needs a new thread where it is to be discussed.

Yasir Shah is a replacement for Shadab Khan just in case he got injured.
Melbourne Stars will probably win this season, having Ben Dunk will improve their batting line up. David Hussey probably should of retired sooner, wasn't inform and was weighing the team down. My predictions of BBL07 are:
1. Melbourne Stars
2. Perth Scorchers
3. Brisbane Heat
4. Adelaide Strikers
5. Sydney Sixers
6. Sydney Thunder
7. Melbourne Renegades
8. Hobart Hurricanes
I think Adelaide will be the underdog of this season, i'm excited to see how this season goes.

They are going to suffer the most, players like Hodge, Dunk, Ludeman & Richardson parting their way from the club created a big dent in the squad. Lot of expectations from Ingram & Rashid Khan.

Their squad has always been very strong on paper, but the players usually fail to execute in the main stage. Their batting performance more or less depends upon the performance of the two overseas and Maxwell. Hope KP brings back his BBL 05 form this year too! Have been a die hard supporter of the Stars since the start of BBL 03 or 04, Hope this time they win for KP!

Melbourne Stars and Perth Scorchers have consistently been on the top of the BBL Ladder and it won't be a surprise if they make it to the top 4. I'm a Heat supporter, i really hope Heat brings it home this year, they have gone through so much lows since BBL02. With having some success at the end of BBL05 and having a very good start to BBL06, i think they could do it. McCullum has really brought hope back to the heat and his captaincy has really payed off.

Shadab will be interesting to watch. Do you think he was a good pick, considering the conditions in Australia?

He maybe successful. Considering his main wicket taking weapon is googly. + I think his batting has improved

Brisbane Heat is what everyone is chanting about, but I am chanting for Sydney Sixers, as I have this prediction that Moises Henriques will lead his team into the finals.
