Everything you need to know about New Zealand’s upcoming tour of Australia, featuring three ODIs.
Australia are set to host New Zealand for a three-match ODI series in Cairns between September 6 and 11. It will be the 13th edition of the Chappell-Hadlee series: a contest traditionally played between the trans-Tasman rivals, named after the legendary cricket families from the two countries: the Chappell brothers – Ian, Gregory, and Trevor – from Australia, and Walter Hadlee and his three sons – Barry, Dayle and Sir Richard – from New Zealand.
Australia lead 6-4 in the 12 series played to date, with two having ended in a draw. Australia had last hosted New Zealand for a ODI series in March 2020, which was cancelled after one game, played in front of empty stands in Sydney, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Australia recently lost the last of three ODIs against the 13th ranked Zimbabwe, while New Zealand haven’t lost an ODI series since their 2020 tour of the country. The Blackcaps however, haven’t won an ODI in Australia since 2009.
Interestingly, the two teams are not scheduled to play a bilateral ODI series under the 2023-27 Future Tours Progamme (FTP).
