Preview

The highly anticipated Boxing Day Test match, the fourth Test match of the five-match series between Australia and India, is just less than 24 hours away at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground. The India vs. Australia Boxing Day Test match is slated to take place at 5 AM IST on December 26.

It seems that the festivities have taken over the historic Melbourne Stadium on the eve of the thriller; around 90 thousand cricket fans will witness a fourth Test match showcasing a stiff competition between bat and ball as the five-match Test series is locked at 1-1. The historic venue is expected to host around one lakh fans who will set the stage for what promises to be an exhilarating contest, with two sides seeking to take a decisive step towards the glory.

The stakes couldn't be higher as the two powerhouses head into the Boxing Day Test match at the MCG, with the historic Border Gavaskar Trophy showdown leveled up at 1-1. If the visitors win, they will seal the series and retain the coveted title, while a victory for Pat Cummins and his men would keep them on a course for their first series win over Team India in the last 10 years.

Coming to the team dynamics, Aussie skipper Pat Cummins unveiled the team's plan, revealing two major changes to the lineup. Young sensation Sam Konstas is making his debut, stepping in for Nathan McSweeney, while Boland replaces injured Josh Hazlewood. The doubts and concerns loom over Travis Head's availability after he sustained a quad strain in Brisbane, leaving the team on edge. However, his return to the playing XI is a big boost for the hosts.

On the other hand, skipper Rohit Sharma might open the innings in this Test match. Team India will look to Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah for inspiration here. Virat piled up 316 runs in the last three innings at MCG, which marks the best among the current squad, while Jasprit Bumrah holds the best bowling figures here.
