KFC T20 Max 2026: Live Streaming, TV Channels, Schedule and Squads

KFC Max T20 Live

The KFC T20 Max runs from August 19 to September 5, 2026. KFC just locked in a new three-year naming-rights deal, and for the first time since 2010, its logo is back on the Queensland Bulls and Queensland Fire playing kits. Get all the details on KFC T20 Max 2026, including how to watch, live streaming options, TV channels, the full schedule, and the squad list.

Max T20 Tournament Format

KFC T20 Max isn’t a straight knockout; understanding the structure explains why some fixtures matter more than others:

  1. Pool Play (Aug 19 – Aug 30): Teams play a round-robin schedule across their pool to bank points and net run rate.
  2. Quarter Finals (Sep 1): Top pool finishers cross over.
  3. Semi-finals (Sep 5, daytime): Winners advance to the same-day Grand Final.
  4. Grand Final (Sep 5, 6:15 PM AEST, Allan Border Field): Single match, tournament title on the line.

That Sep 5 triple-header two semis and a final on the same day, same venue for the decider is the day to clear your calendar if you only watch one day of cricket all summer.
