Another huge summer of international cricket is locked in, starting in northern Australia with the NRMA Insurance Men’s Test Series against Bangladesh.
The first Test lands in Darwin from 13 – 17 August 2026, before the action moves to Mackay from 22 – 26 August 2026.
It’s a special start to the season too. Test cricket returns to Marrara Stadium for the first time since July 2004, and Mackay will make history by hosting its first-ever Test at Great Barrier Reef Arena. Big moments, a tropical backdrop, and a one-of-a-kind atmosphere to launch the summer.
