Melbourne, Nov 4 : Australian players have been placed in the barely tenable position of being unable to train on the ground at which they are to play a pivotal Test match in two days’ time.
The Vidarbha Cricket Association’s new stadium in Nagpur was completed this year and has only previously hosted a pair of trial games, FOX Sports reported.
Its practice facilities are not yet ready, meaning the Australians and Indians have been booked to train at the old VCA ground, which hosted the 2004 Test between the two nations.
