Two four-day matches between Australia A and India A and a three-day internal match comprising players from the Indian Test squad and India A will precede the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series as the top-ranked Test nations prepare for their hugely anticipated showdown.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The lead-up games mean Australia will host the biggest Indian summer ever with the hugely supported Indian men\u2019s and women\u2019s teams playing in Australia over 69 days from first ball to last and in eight different venues Australia-wide.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The Australia A v India A matches will be played at Great Barrier Reef Arena in Mackay (Oct 31-Nov 3) and the MCG (Nov 7-10) respectively, with the Indian internal match to take place at the WACA Ground (Nov 15-17) with players pushing their case for selection ahead of the West Test.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The Australian women\u2019s team will take on India in three ODI\u2019s in December as the rivalry between the world champion Australians and the rapidly improving India intensifies.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Peter Roach, CA Head of Cricket Operations and Scheduling said: \u201cThe 2024-25 summer is highlighted by the five-Test Border-Gavaskar Trophy series, the first five-Test series between the two giants in more than 30 years. To have that running simultaneously with the women\u2019s ODIs and preceded by two significant Australia A v India A matches will be terrific for our fans.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cHosting those A matches at the upgraded Great Barrier Reef Arena and the MCG give these A matches significant status and will provide great opportunities to players from both sides to put up their hand for selection.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
