AUS vs IND: Aussies Have A Christmas Day Out Ahead Of Boxing Day Test

By IANS News December 25, 2020 • 12:01 PM View: 908

Ahead of the second 'Boxing Day' Test against India, the Australian team on Friday got together for a Christmas lunch. Skipper Tim Paine, who usually does not bat and takes some catches on the eve of a Test match, followed the same routine and then had a brief meeting with the players, discussing plans for the second Test before proceeding for the Christmas lunch.

"We will have a quick chat for tomorrow. I will try and provide a bit of humour for the lads and then we head out for our Christmas Day lunch which is something Australian Test teams have done for many years which is a great day," Paine told reporters in an interaction on the eve of the second Test.
