The fourth Test match of the five-match series between India National Cricket Team and Australia National Cricket Team is all set to be played at the Melbourne Cricket Ground from December 26.
The ongoing series between India and Australia is currently levelled at 1-1. India National Cricket Team started off their campaign Down Under with a dominant 295-run win in Perth under the leadership of Jasprit Bumrah.
The third Test match was held in Brisbane and the Aussies showed sheer dominance both with the bat and ball. However, the rain played spoilsport and the game ended in draw, denying Australia a win.
Trav's good to go, he'll play - Pat Cummins
However, Pat Cummins confirmed that the left-handed batsman passed the fitness Test and is good to go. He elaborated:
"It feels like the last 12 months, he's been in this unbelievable vein of form and he just keeps going on with it. He's hitting the ball really cleanly. You can see the pressure that he shifts back onto the opposition literally from the first ball that he walks out there."
"I'm loving that he's in our team and I don't have to try to set a field and bowl to him. He's hitting the ball as well as I've ever seen anyone. So long may it continue."
