Australia will field a markedly understrength side when they host Sri Lanka in a three-match T20 series in February, the third of which is scheduled for Wednesday, February 22 at the Adelaide Oval with the first ball to be bowled at 7:50pm (AEDT).
The only way to legal way to stream the T20 series between the Aussies and Sri Lanka will be through the Cricket Australia live Pass from cricket.com.au.
Even though Nine have their own streaming option, it’s blacked out when they provide coverage of the cricket due to the fact that CA holds the digital rights and hand them to Optus.
There are two options in getting the pass, with the first of those being the 365 pass, which allows you to stream every match played in Australia. This costs $29.99.
The second option is a day pass, which gives you all the same entitlements but only for a singular day and will set you back $5.99.
Overseas tours, unless otherwise noted, won’t be available through the live pass as they are broadcast on pay TV broadcaster Fox Sports.
If you are with Optus as your mobile provider, then the live pass may be included in your plan for no extra cost – however, you can rack up some nasty data charges if you are outside of a wifi zone.
Don’t forget The Roar will have a live blog of each and every day from the summer of cricket as well as highlights throughout and after the match.
The third T20 between Australia and Sri Lanka is exclusive to Channel Nine and as such, whether through Nine, NineHD, NineGEM or Southern Cross Nine, it will be the only way to watch this match on television.
The coverage is scheduled to begin at 7:30pm (AEDT) – twenty minutes before the first ball, leaving the way for a very short pregame build up.
There will be two options to listen on radio, with Fairfax and the ABC both providing coverage.
Both can be found on your local frequencies or on the Cricket Australia website and mobile app if you wish to listen in online.
If you are going to stream radio coverage online, then you will require a Cricket Australia ID, which comes free of charge.
