Indian Cricket Board (BCCI) President Roger Binny felicitated Prime Minister Albanese of Australia while Secretary Jay Shah felicitated Prime Minister Modi. On the occasion of 75 years of friendship between India and Australia, Modi and Albanese also did a ‘lap of honour’ of the ground. Australia have made no changes to their team that won the third Test in Indore.
It is noteworthy that both the leaders took a tour of the entire stadium in a golf cart (a small motor vehicle designed to carry golf players to the golf course). Modi and Albanese, who arrived on a golf cart, were greeted with applause by thousands of cricket fans who arrived at the stadium to watch the Test match. Albanese had reached Ahmedabad on Wednesday morning.
India made one change and included Mohammed Shami in the playing XI in place of fast bowler Mohammed Siraj. Umesh Yadav is playing the match. This match is very important for India. If Team India has to reach the title match of the ICC World Test Championship, then it will have to win the match here at any cost.
India (Playing XI): Rohit Sharma (captain), Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Shrikar Bharat (wicketkeeper), Ravindra Jadeja, Akshar Patel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Mohammed Shami, Umesh Yadav
Australia (Playing XI): Travis Head, Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne, Steven Smith (c), Peter Handscomb, Cameron Green, Alex Carey (wk), Mitchell Starc, Todd Murphy, Matthew Kuhnman, Nathan Lyon
IND vs AUS: History will be created in Ahmedabad today, PM Modi-Anthony Albanese reached the stadium
