You know summer is near when you see the Blackcaps return to the schedule!
Sport Nation's award-winning commentary team are back to bring you ball-by-ball action from Christchurch's Hagley Oval, where the hosts will look to respond to their series-opening defeat on Thursday to India in the second T20.
Also looking to bounce back are the Kiwis, who will take on the Cook Islands at Te Kaha in a bid to earn their maiden win of their Rugby League World Cup campaign.
The first round of the Supercars finals revs up in the Gold Coast 500, and of course, there's plenty of Premier League and racing to wrap your ears around with the Cox Plate this Saturday.
