First Documented Cricket at Hobart, Van Diemen's Land — January 1824
Officers vs Civilians
1824-01-29
On 29 January 1824 a cricket match was played at Hobart between officers of the Van Diemen's Land garrison and a civilian side — the earliest documented cricket fixture in Tasmania and the second-earliest in Australia (after Sydney 1804). The fixture is the foundation entry of Tasmanian cricket and the second link in the early Australian cricket map.
