Sheffield Shield Live Telecast Channel in Australia and India: When and where to watch Sheffield Shield 2020-21?

Sheffield Shield Live Telecast Channel: The SportsRush present before you the timing and live streaming details of Sheffield Shield.

The second half of this Sheffield Shield season will be worthy of all the more attention due to the presence of players such as Tim Paine, Steve Smith, Marnus Labuschagne, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood and Nathan Lyon.

With three of them in Smith, Starc and Lyon turning up for New South Wales against Victoria at the Sydney Cricket Ground tomorrow, there is no reason whatsoever for Australian fans to not watch their premier first-class tournament.

In addition to this clash, Tasmania will be hosting Queensland at the Blundstone Arena which will witness Paine battling it out against the likes of Labuschagne, Usman Khawaja and Joe Burns among others.

Both the high-profile matches are expected to entice bountiful eyeballs in times when no cricket is happening in Australia. With the culmination of their international summer and Big Bash League, fans must be itching to take refuge in such a star-studded domestic tournament.

After the commencement of the 52nd season of the Marsh Cup, cricket fans down under will now be eagerly awaiting the resumption of the Sheffield Shield which has undergone a more than two-month long delay due to international cricket and Big Bash League.

Much like the recently concluded India’s tour of Australia, Sheffield Shield will also be televised by Fox Cricket in Australia. However, fans must note that not all the matches will be televised on Fox Cricket (list mentioned below).

For fans, who prefer to watch the sport on online platforms on their mobile phone or laptops, can stream all matches live on either cricket.com.au or Kayo Sports. It is worth mentioning that both the platforms will be offering the streaming for free.

When this season of the Australian domestic cricket had commenced last year, Sony Network had streamed it in India. Having said that, the Marsh Cup match between New South Wales and Victoria hadn’t been streamed by Sony LIV. Hence, there are minimal chances of them streaming Sheffield Shield tomorrow.

That said, Indian fans are advised to check Sony LIV once to get a final confirmation. No other platform than Sony LIV will stream the Sheffield Shield.

Date – 17/02/2021 (Wednesday) – 19/04/2021 (Monday).

Match start Time – 10:00 AM (AEDT), 10:30 AM (AEDT), 05:00 AM (IST) and 05:30 AM (IST).

TV Channels – Fox Cricket (Australia).

Online platforms – Kayo Sports and cricket.com.au (Australia).
