A Roy Morgan Single Source survey shows that 21% of Australians aged 14+ associated KFC with the Big Bash League in the year to September 2018. This rises to 40% among Australians who almost always or occasionally watch cricket on TV. However, only 3% of TV cricket watchers associate pay-TV company Fox Sports and long-term cricketing sponsor the Commonwealth Bank with the Big Bash. The Commonwealth Bank is associated far more strongly with Test Cricket, for which the bank had a long-term sponsorship arrangement. This ended in early 2017 but 24% of TV cricket watchers associate the bank with Test Cricket, ahead of the official Fast Food Restaurant of Cricket Australia, KFC, on 22%. Another long-term former sponsor, CUB’s Victoria Bitter, is still heavily associated with Test Cricket by 15% of TV cricket watchers. VB ended more than 20 years’ sponsorship of Australian cricket early in 2017.
