The 2019-20 summer of cricket is just around the corner, with a plethora of matches for you to watch in the coming months. The Roar has all the information you need to watch every minute of all Australian domestic and international matches right here.
Test matches
Both Seven and Fox will simulcast the upcoming Test series against Pakistan and New Zealand. Fox’s coverage will be on Fox Cricket (501), while Seven’s coverage may vary between Seven proper or 7mate – check your local listings for confirmation.
Limited overs matches
Fox Sports have exclusive rights to broadcast ODIs and T20Is, meaning they’ll be the sole broadcasters of the T20 series with Sri Lanka and Pakistan and March’s ODI series against New Zealand. Like the Tests, this will be available on Fox Cricket (501).
Away matches
Away games are, once again, exclusive to Fox Sports. This includes Tests, ODIs and T20Is although it excludes the upcoming Ashes series, as Nine had already secured the rights to it prior to the current TV rights deal coming into effect.
Live streaming
As far as live streaming goes, your best option will be to use Kayo. They’ll have every upcoming Australian international cricket game – except the Ashes – live.
To see all of Australia’s home fixtures which will be broadcast on Seven and Fox, you can check out our Australian cricket fixtures page.
Women’s team
The Australian women’s cricket team’s international fixtures can typically be viewed by similar means to the men’s side. Their matches are reliably broadcast via Foxtel on Fox Cricket (501), and this means they can also be accessed by live streaming options like Kayo. Their matches are also often broadcast on free-to-air television by Seven, and it may be possible to stream them using 7Plus.
Big Bash
Of the 56 home-and-away Big Bash League matches, 40 of them will be simulcast on both Seven and Fox Sports. The remaining 16 will be exclusive to Fox Sports.
Once again, Kayo is your best bet when it comes to live streaming.
WBBL
The 56-match Women’s Big Bash League season will see 23 matches broadcast on Fox Sports and Kayo. The rest will be available for a free live stream on cricket.com.au. You can check the full WBBL fixtures to see which matches will be broadcast.
Domestic cricket
Sheffield Shield
All Sheffield Shield matches, except for the final, are exclusive to cricket.com.au, who offer a free live stream – although you need to create a free Cricket ID to gain access.
The final itself, however, is broadcast on Fox Cricket and Kayo.
One-day cup
One-day cup fixtures are split between Fox Cricket and cricket.com.au. Check out the full domestic cricket fixture too see which matches are available on which platform.
Women’s National Cricket League
Like the Sheffield Shield, the women’s one-day cricket competition is exclusively available on cricket.com.au to those with a Cricket ID.
