The Indian cricket team is currently on Australia tour, where a five-match Test series is being played between the two teams under the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. In the first match of the series, India won by 295 runs and took a 1-0 lead.

The second match of the series will be played in Adelaide from December 6, which will be a pink-ball test. Before this match, Team India is playing a warm-up match against Prime Minister’s XI, before which the players met Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.

Meanwhile, the Australian Prime Minister says that the India vs Australia rivalry is bigger than the Ashes series. He said that the five-match Test series has further strengthened the rivalry between India and Australia. Anthony Albanese believes that the Boxing Day Test match between IND vs AUS to be held at Melbourne Cricket Ground from 26 December is going to be great.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese gave this statement

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was asked on Fox Sports about the comparison between the Ashes and the Border-Gaskar Trophy, he said,

I think now, the population, if you look at IPL, it is a huge part of global cricket. Prime Minister Modi, I went to the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad for the test match and there was a huge crowd there. Of course, more people sit here than any other ground in the world and they are so emotional.

We played the final of the International Cricket Series (World Test Championship) in London. And we were successful there, but there is real rivalry in the series and now I would suggest even more. Sometimes it was just a three-Test series. It’s going to be huge on Boxing Day December 26, I think, you know, they can get 100,000 people there and it’s great for Australian tourism as well.
