Boxing Day Test Match, Melbourne Cricket Ground

During the 1991/92 world cup, I remember getting earlier to see the Cricket matches in Australia and New Zealand with color clothing and white balls. It was indeed my childhood dream to watch a Cricket match in Australia. Finally the dream came true to witness the Boxing Day test match between India and Australia in Melbourne Cricket Ground. The atmosphere was so electrifying even for a test match, no wonder why this is still the ultimate form of Cricket. 


Thanks to my college friend Seshadhri who accompanied me from Singapore in this Australian trip and gave a great company through out the journey. It was nice to watch the great partnership between Kohli and Jaiswal but ultimately resulting in a suicidal run out from Jaiswal. It was a great gripping test match and test series, where Australia won the series 3-1.

Cheers,
