Pitch Perfect: New Cricket Deal for North Sydney Oval

North Sydney Council < 1 mins read

North Sydney Council, in partnership with Cricket Australia and Cricket NSW, today announced a new five-year venue hire agreement for North Sydney Oval.

This landmark agreement further cements North Sydney Oval’s reputation as one of Australia’s premier venues for elite men’s and women’s cricket, and reflects a shared commitment to fostering high-quality sporting experiences in the heart of the city.

Mayor of North Sydney, Councillor Zoë Baker, welcomed the partnership:

“This new agreement with Cricket Australia and Cricket NSW reinforces North Sydney Oval’s status as one of Australia’s premier cricket venues. We’re proud to continue hosting elite-level matches that inspire our community and showcase the best of the sport,” Mayor Baker said.

As part of the announcement, details were revealed about upcoming Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) fixtures, with the Sydney Sixers Women set to return to the Oval for key matches in the 2025–26 season. These fixtures continue the Oval’s proud tradition of hosting top-tier women’s cricket and providing a platform for the sport’s leading athletes.

Mayor Baker highlighted the significance of the WBBL fixtures:

“North Sydney Oval has long been a champion of women’s sport, and the upcoming WBBL fixtures are a powerful reflection of that legacy. We’re proud to support a competition that promotes equality, excellence, and opportunity for women in cricket,” Mayor Baker said.
