While this is true, over the course of the whole summer they'll still lose viewers. If the D/N's were at Brisbane and Adelaide, as well as the usual time slot in Perth, then you would expect 7 hours and 40 minutes of Prime Time TV. This schedule however only allows for 6 hours and 50 minutes.
Will be interesting to see if they can draw good crowds to womens internationals at the Junction, I see they are even playing a few World T20 games there
Hobart got shafted again no doubt, and also don't get an Australia game in either mens or womens T20 World Champs.

CA doesn't fixture ICC tournaments.
When did that become a thing? I thought host nations had generally worked the detail within a few ICC requirements in the past.

Whenever the tournaments became the ICC's major source of income. Their sponsors on the grass and signage, not CA's.
Hobart will host matches in the men's T20 - three double-headers in the first round, involving Sri Lanka and three teams who qualify through the World Cup qualifier in the UAE in Oct/Nov this year. - and then two games in the Super 12.

Don’t really see the point in Sri Lanka coming out for 3 T20I’s.
Must say the thought of playing NZ on Boxing Day is quite exciting, although we all know the Boxing Day test is a snooze fest.
Would personally like to see us go over and play a Boxing Day Test there in 4 years time, same with SA if it meant them coming over here at that time of year.

I feel like big Cricket fans would embrace it and those who just flick it on here and there would be OUTRAGED.

Would take a Boxing Day-Night Test in New Zealand over another "Do you remember when this was good?", going-through-the-motions MCG Test.
