Erin Holland will be watching more keenly than ever as Australian cricket rolls out the latest edition of its wildly successful Big Bash tournament on Wednesday.
Not only is the Fox Sports anchor’s partner Ben Cutting competing, but it’s good preparation for her own stint in the upcoming Indian Premier League.
Holland made her debut as an anchor for the IPL earlier this year and is negotiating a return for March.
“Cricket has been in my blood thanks to my family since I was a little girl,” Holland told The Daily Telegraph yesterday.
“My interest though has of course increased over the past four years or so.” Holland has been dating Brisbane Heat all-rounder Cutting for four years.
He will also play in the IPL for the Mumbai Indians.
The Big Bash League will be broadcast on Fox Sports and Channel 7 this season in a new network deal that saw the sport wrestled from Ten and Nine.
