Perth is gearing up for an exciting summer of cricket, with a packed schedule set to bring top-tier action to Perth Stadium. The cricket season kicks off with the return of men’s international white-ball cricket, as Australia faces off against Pakistan in a One-Day International on 10 November. This highly anticipated fixture is just the start of what promises to be a thrilling few months of cricket in the west.
One of cricket’s fiercest rivalries will then take the spotlight when Australia meets India for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy Series. The NRMA Insurance West Test will see these two cricketing powerhouses clash at Perth Stadium from 22-26 November. With the intense competition between these teams, it’s sure to draw fans in droves to witness the action live.
As the summer heats up, Perth Scorchers will also get their BBL|14 campaign underway, starting with a much-anticipated home opener against the Melbourne Stars on 15 December. Fans can look forward to more big moments with the Scorchers taking on Brisbane Heat in the annual Boxing Day Bash, one of the most exciting fixtures of the season.
Behind the scenes, the preparation for these matches has been equally impressive. A state-of-the-art 40-tonne cricket wicket transporter recently moved the drop-in wicket onto the Perth Stadium playing surface, readying it for the months of cricket ahead. The machine, the only one of its kind in Western Australia, was used in collaboration with HG Turf, ensuring that the playing conditions will be top-notch for both players and fans alike.
With everything now in place, Perth is ready to showcase world-class cricket across multiple formats, promising an unforgettable summer for sports lovers in the city.
