CA Reach Agreement To Host Fabled Boxing Day Test At MCG Till 2031: Reports
Boxing Day Test: Cricket Australia (CA) have secured a seven-year deal ensuring that one of the biggest events on the cricketing calendar, the fabled Boxing Day Test will take place at the Melbourne Cricket Ground until at least 2027.
This agreement is part of a broader arrangement between CA and five state governments, trading schedule certainty for promoting cricket each summer. The deal also includes a showpiece match between Australia and England in March 2027 to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Test cricket as reported by the Australian newspaper The Age.
“The MCG is the home of the Boxing Day Test, and the event is already locked in for December 26, 2024. We’re working hard to ensure that any future arrangements deliver benefits to the Victorian taxpayer,” A Victorian government spokesperson told The Age.
