Australian High Commissioner Barry O’Farrell on Monday pointed that the Australian Prime Minister will be on a 3-day-visit to India from 8 March and will visit Mumbai, Ahmedabad and New Delhi.
He furthermore informed that PM Modi and Australian PM Albanese will watch Day-1 of the fourth and final Test of the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia in Ahmedabad on 9 March. “One of the things that bind both countries is cricket and it will be great to see the leaders of India and Australia on day one of the matches in Ahmedabad,” he said.
The fourth and final Test of the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia will start from 9 March onwards in Ahmedabad. India is currently leading the series by 2-1.
If they win the final Test, they will qualify for the final of the ICC World Test Championship, where they will be facing Australia in London from 7 June onwards. India had won the first Test at Nagpur by an inning and 132 runs. They followed it with a six-wicket win at Delhi in the second Test. Both Tests ended in a span of three days.
Australia prevented the possibility of facing a whitewash by winning the third Test at Indore by nine wickets within three days.
