Australia are in the box seat to take out the Women’s Ashes, but things could be flipped on their head when they take on England in the only Test of the series at North Sydney Oval. This is The Roar‘s guide to streaming the match online and watching it on TV.

The Test, played over four days, will run from Thursday, November 9 to Sunday, November 12, with each day’s play scheduled to start at 2:30pm (AEDT). The match is being played at North Sydney Oval.

Different to the men’s Ashes, the women play three ODIs, a four-day Test and three T20s with a sliding points scale. There are two points on offer for all the limited overs matches and four for the Test, meaning there are 16 on the line in total.

That means nine will win the Ashes, and with the one-day matches already done, Australia are holding a 4-2 lead. Because they won the last Ashes series, a win in the Test means they would move to eight points, allowing them to retain the trophy. That makes this must-win for England.

How to watch the match on TV

Unfortunately, the match isn’t being broadcast on TV. While the limited overs matches were broadcast on the Nine Network, the only way to watch the Test will be online.

How to live stream the match online

A live stream can be found on the cricket.com.au website. They will live stream the game on their match centre and while it’s free to watch, you’ll still need a Cricket ID to stream the action.

If you are looking to watch off mobile, then you will need to use the Cricket Australia Live app, which can be downloaded from both the App Store and Google Play for free. Again, you will need to be registered with a Cricket ID.
