The non-legally binding Heads of Agreement signed by Cricket Tasmania and the Tasmanian Government on 23 November does not confirm that cricket will be played at the Macquarie Point Stadium.
Tasmanian Times has obtained a copy and it is published below.
The document contains no commitment to stage international cricket and explicitly states:
“This document does not create any legal relationship between the parties and no legally enforceable rights or obligations arise in relation to the subject matter of this document. This document does not constitute an offer or commitment by the parties to enter into any agreement or transaction.”
Examination of two successive agreements between June and November 2025 reveals that parties have shifted focus from solving the stadium’s roof design problem to planning logistics and funding, yet the fundamental question of whether international cricket will be played at the venue remains unresolved.
The timing of the announcement is significant.
