The Ashes in Sydney

As the 2025/26 Ashes series draws to a close, the action moves to the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG), one of Australia’s most iconic venues. The final Test of the series is sure to be a thrilling encounter, with the possibility of everything to play for. Kiwi fans travelling to Sydney will be in for a spectacular conclusion to the series, with intense rivalry and excitement filling the air.

The Sydney Test is also renowned for being the ‘Pink Test’, an annual event that raises funds for the Jane McGrath Foundation. On Day 3, the crowd turns pink in support of the foundation, and it’s a heartwarming spectacle as the SCG becomes awash in pink attire to honour the memory of Glenn McGrath’s late wife, Jane. If you're planning to attend, be sure to wear something pink to show your support!

With the Australian squad possibly at a crossroads, this could be a swansong for some of the team’s legendary players. As such, this final Ashes Test promises to be an emotional and historic match that New Zealand fans won’t want to miss.

About the SCG

The Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) is a venue with a rich history and a revered place in Australian sport. With its origins dating back to 1878, the SCG has hosted countless memorable moments, especially in the world of cricket, where Australia and England have competed in Test matches since 1882. Known for its spin-friendly pitch, the SCG has been a place where many cricketing greats have left their mark.

In addition to hosting cricket, the SCG is also home to other major sporting events, including rugby, AFL, and football. However, the Sydney Ashes Test holds a special place on the calendar, especially with the Pink Test, which has raised millions of dollars for the McGrath Foundation. The 2019 Pink Test alone raised over $1.3 million, making this not only a sporting event but also an opportunity to contribute to a very important cause.
