New Zealand Cricket Home International Season in Wellington

It looks like New Zealand Cricket (NZC) has slogged it for six. The 2025-26 international home season of cricket promises over 40 days of action across the country. Wellington has scored five major opportunities to see the BLACKCAPS and WHITE FERNS in action. Four formidable opponents are travelling to New Zealand shores. Australia, England, the West Indies, and South Africa will compete across multiple formats. The live T20I action at Sky Stadium and Test matches at Cello Basin Reserve will have Wellington buzzing.

The 2024-25 season saw bumper crowds, so NZC are hoping to build on this exciting momentum. As rising WHITE FERNS star Georgia Plimmer says, “The atmosphere in Wellington — sitting on the bank, having a drink and watching some great cricket — that’s what you want on a summer’s day in New Zealand.”
