Does anyone have a record of the WBBL GF audiences and what channel they were on each year (like if they were in main channel or on the secondary channel)

What a mess!
My view Australia should tour NZ this year. If this happened Iād enjoy to watch the test matches in NZ against Australia. I think it would be a contest. Rather than NZ come to Australia for the test matches.

Arenāt international tours set in stone for the next few years? Bit hard to change things on a dime.

These are extraordinary times, they do call for unusual measures.
True. However I was thinking this year this was the first time in a while only 1 team is coming to tour. Since they skipped the test match against Afghanistan and also the T20 world cup was canned . So having a couple of test in NZ could of been slotted in.
If Pakistan drop out of tour of NZ I think Australia so do a few tests late Jan in NZ early Feb.

Yes, well nothing is āset in stoneā these days.
Agreed - this should have been the way things were done. Cricket Au were desperate to have India tour and get the TV rights money from India though.
Could have even had a five test series, 3 in Australia, 2 in NZ. ODIs in one country and T20s in another. Really mixed it up and created something unique/special.

Sydney Thunder end Brisbane Heatās hopes of a 3-peat after beating the Heat by 12 runs. Chasing for 144 to win The Heat started off very well, but wickets tumbled after the 15th over. The Heat Lost 6/12 in 3.1 overs! Sammy Jo Johnson took the final wicket of Delissa Kimmince!
Melbourne Stars have booked themselves in the WBBL final for the first time in history, while the Thunder is looking to win a 2nd title in 6 years.
Who wins the Final?

That was a remarkable collapse which included two needless run outs.
Unfortunately the final will be played in stifling conditions on Saturday night in Sydney with an overnight minimum of 25 degrees expected. Ouch.
I pity Argentina playing the All Blacks in Rugby up the road in Newcastle at the same time. Those poor fellas wonāt know what hit them.

And that cricket is less physically demanding than rugby - particularly in hot weather.
