Additional tour match scheduled for India in Australia

Several changes have been made to the international and domestic programs for Australian cricket next summer, and India will benefit during their tour with an extra match, Cricket Australia said today. They will play a Queensland XI in a three-day match at Allan Border Field from November 29-December 1.

As a result of the inclusion of this match, the Indian three-day game against Victoria in Melbourne will now start two days earlier on November 25. The one-day match against the Prime Minister's XI in Canberra has been transferred from December 1 to January 28. India¹s other tour match, a three-day clash against Australia A in Hobart (December 19-21), remains unchanged.
