That's a wrap... The cricket season has come to an end

Crowds watched cricket at Adelaide Oval, whether perched on The Hill beside the Heritage Scoreboard or swapping stories in the stands while the world’s best created history out on the hallowed turf beneath. From Big Bash blockbusters to the Christmas Test, cricket has marked the 2025/26 season in a big way. This is time for bats and leather balls to leave the space to its oval version kicking off the footy season.
