In announcing their international fixtures for the 2023-24 summer of cricket, Cricket Australia have confirmed that two matches will be held at Hobart’s Blundstone Arena.
The Australian Women will stage a re-match of the 2023 ICC T20 World Cup Final when they take on South Africa in a T20 International match on Tuesday 30 January, before the Australian Men take on the big-hitting West Indies on in another T20 encounter on Friday 9 February.
It will be the first time both Australian teams have played fixtures in Tasmania since the 2025-16 season.
Cricket Tasmania Chairman, David Boon, said the announcement was great news for Cricket Tasmania Members and Tasmanian cricket fans alike.
“It will be fantastic to welcome both the national Men’s and Women’s cricket teams to Tasmania this summer,” Boon said.
“Both teams have won World Cups in the T20 format in the past 18 months, so it’s fantastic that Tasmanian sports fans have the opportunity to watch these world-class teams in action live.
“As an organisation, we continue to work with Cricket Australia to ensure we have premium international content here each summer, so the fact that we have both of Australia’s national teams playing here for the first time in eight years is a really positive step forward.”
Cricket Tasmania Members will receive exclusive access to the Members’ Area at Blundstone Arena for both matches.
For non-members, tickets for both matches will be available via pre-sale from this Wednesday, May 17, whilst tickets will be available for sale to the general public from Tuesday 6 June.
