Australia v England T20 International Cricket 2026

Australia takes on England at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Sunday 29 November 2026, in the fourth T20 International of a five-match series and the only fixture played in Sydney. Under lights, a T20 moves fast once play starts, but it’s still a full night out.

Since it falls on a Sunday, most guests have work the next day, which is reason enough to stay close to Moore Park rather than plan the trip home around a Sunday night train.

Getting to the SCG from Macquarie Park

Public transport: take the Sydney Metro from Macquarie Park to Central Station, around 25 minutes, then connect to Sydney Light Rail (L3) for Moore Park, a further 15 minutes or so, followed by a short walk to the SCG.

Taxi or rideshare: the SCG is approximately 12 kilometres from the hotel, generally 20 to 30 minutes by car in normal traffic, with extra time worth allowing around the ground given limited on-site parking.

Staying at Crowne Plaza Sydney Macquarie Park for the T20

A drink at Bistro Bar is an easy way to start the evening before heading out, open daily until 9:30pm. The Standard King Room suits most guests staying over for the one night, and coming back to Macquarie Park afterwards means the Sunday night trip home isn’t hanging over the last few overs.

For guests arriving back later than expected, in-room dining runs an overnight menu from 9:30pm to 6:30am.
