In August, the BCCI had asked CA for an additional warm-up game during the tour. Previously, India were scheduled to play a four-day tour game from December 18. The request was made in the aftermath of the disastrous tour of England – following India’s 0-4 whitewash, severe criticism was directed towards the Indian board with regards to the team’s preparation.
India play four Tests and two Twenty20s against Australia, followed by a tri-series that also includes Sri Lanka. The tour two matches will be a part of the inaugural ‘Festival of Cricket’ in Canberra, which will run from December 4 to 21. The festival also features a Sheffield Shield game from December 6 to 9 and a Ryobi One-Day Cup match.
