Big Test Season Awaits Australia with Busy 12-Month Schedule
Australia will be having a busy schedule in the Test format now. The team is scheduled to play 20 test matches in the coming 12 months, which begins with the series against Bangladesh. At this moment, fitness of players such as Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc, and more will be crucial.
The coming months will be bringing down much of Test action involving the Australian team. They have played among the few games in the current World Test Championship cycle, as the team still continues its reign at the top of the table. As of now, they have started the preparations for the upcoming Test series against Bangladesh.
Along with that, the Test schedule for the Australian cricket team looks packed for the next 12 months. The team is set to play 20 tests in the coming 12 months, out of which 5 tests will be against India, and 5 tests will be against England. It should also be noted that both of them will be away series for the team.
Australia will also be playing against England in a one off Test next year. This will be to celebrate the 150th Test anniversary between the two cricketing nations, who have been in the game ever since it started. In this tight schedule, Australia will also have to look forward to the fitness of its players.
Our Take
Australia is still being considered as one of the strongest Test teams right now. With a pace attack being backed by players such as Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, and Pat Cummins, the team also has an experienced batsman in the form of Steve Smith. As Australia aims to reach the finals of the World Test Championship, it will be necessary for all these stars to remain fit.
