New Delhi: The first day of the two-day practice match of the Indian cricket team on the Australia tour was washed out due to rain. The toss could not even take place at Manuka Oval in Canberra. Team India will play a day-night test in Canberra from December 6. This match will be played with a pink ball. In such a situation, this warm-up match is very important for them. This will give them a chance to set their eyes on the pink ball.
Before this warm-up match, the players of both teams met Prime Minister Anthony Albanese in Canberra. Captain Rohit Sharma also gave a wonderful speech. Now Rohit is going to make a comeback from this match. He could not play in the first Test match played in Perth due to the birth of a child.
