Australia PM's XI Red-ball Fixture Against Pakistan Confirmed To Happen From December 6-9
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese: Cricket Australia (CA) announced that the Prime Minister’s XI match against Pakistan will happen from December 6-9 at Manuka Oval. The fixture will be played in the week leading up to the first Test of the Men's Test Series between Australia and Pakistan in Perth.
The match, whose tickets have been put on sale from Monday, returns to a four-day red ball fixture after last year’s day/night pink ball match against the West Indies. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will meet with CA Chair of Selectors, George Bailey and selector, Tony Dodemaide to discuss selection of the squad.
“Pakistan is such a proud cricketing nation. I’ve previously loved watching players like Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis steaming in with the new ball, so I’m excited the PM’s XI will face the talented Pakistan squad in Canberra. In the coming weeks, I will meet with the National Selectors to discuss what I suspect will be a strong PM’s XI,” said Albanese in a statement.
