The series, like all those contested by Australia at home will be only available on the nine network, who hold the exclusive rights to all international cricket played in Australia.

They will broadcast the match on their main channel, which can be found on Channel 90 for high definition and 91 for standard definition.

If you are looking to watch the match on Foxtel, then you will need to use Channel 209 for high definition and 100 for standard definition.

The broadcast of all five matches will begin at 1:30pm (AEDT) and break for news during the innings change, which normally lasts for 45 minutes. Coverage will conclude shortly after the final ball, which is due to be around 10:05pm (AEDT).

How to live stream the series online

Because Cricket Australia retain their own digital rights to international cricket played in Australia, you won’t be able to watch this match through any of Nine’s normal streaming means.

Instead, you will need to sign up for the Cricket Australia live pass. This comes with two options, being a yearly pass which costs $29.99 and a day pass, which costs $5.99.
