India vs Australia MCG tickets: The SportsRush present before you full ticketing details for the second AUS vs IND Test.
The second Test of the ongoing India’s tour of Australia will begin from December 26 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. The match going on as originally planned is a massive development for Cricket Australia given serious doubts over it had emerged after the second COVID-19 wave in Victoria.
It was in the last week of June that former Australia captain Mark Taylor had expressed concerns around conducting the match in Melbourne and was followed by WACA putting their hand up to host the match in the absence of an international fixture.
While Sydney and Canberra have already hosted international matches this summer, Adelaide, Melbourne and Brisbane are next in line to host India during the four-match Test series.
