Australia Gear Up For Test Summer With Sheffield Shield Showdown
The Sheffield Shield: Australian cricketers, in a bid to reclaim the Border-Gavaskar Trophy from India, will play four Sheffield Shield rounds before the Test summer opener against India on November 22.
Unlike the past three years, which saw white-ball World Cups extending into November, this year’s schedule allows for a dedicated red-ball window. Australia's limited-overs tour of the United Kingdom concludes on September 29, and the national team will not be in action again until a three-match ODI and T20I home series against Pakistan from November 4-18.
This gap in the international calendar enables leading Australian players to participate in multiple Sheffield Shield matches.
