Domain calls stumps on Test naming rights in middle of four-year deal | SMHsport
Cricket Australia has been left without a naming rights sponsor of men’s Test cricket after real estate giant Domain pulled out midway through a four-year deal with the sport’s governing body.The Sydney Morning Herald, linked up in June 2018 with cricket as the sport embarked on a major reputational rebuild, with the Australian team’s standing having careered off a cliff when the ball tampering scandal erupted in South Africa.
However, CA has been left to secure another major backer of home Test series after Domain’s decision to cease the sponsorship, which was to run until 2022, was formalised at a board meeting in Sydney on Wednesday. Under the arrangement Domain had an option after two years to extend or not for a further two.
"We’re in discussions [with CA] about how else we might evolve our relationship with them," Chuck said.
