Nine director of sport Brent Williams welcomed the news.
"Any cricket World Cup is a premium event on the international calendar and we're excited to be the free-to-air home of the 2022 T20 World Cup in Australia and the 2023 World Cup, which will be held in India," Williams said.
"Nine has a long and proud history with cricket and we look forward to that continuing with all Australian and key matches of these prestigious events being broadcast across Nine's platforms."
Australia, under the captaincy of Aaron Finch, won their first men's T20 World Cup when they beat New Zealand by eight wickets in Dubai in November.
They'll be out to repeat the heroics of their 2015 ODI World Cup triumph on home soil when this year's tournament kicks off.
The 2015 victory saw captain Michael Clarke lead Australia to glory over New Zealand by seven wickets at the MCG.
