"The Boxing Day Test will go ahead at its traditional home of the MCG, Cricket Australia has confirmed, as details for India’s summer tour were finally released on Wednesday.
Virat Kohli’s side will kick off the men’s international summer – worth around $300m to CA – with the first two of three ODI matches on 27 and 29 November at the SCG. Canberra’s Manuka Oval will host the final 50-over game on 2 December.
A three-match T20 international series then follows at Manuka Oval (4 December) and the SCG (6 and 8 December) before Adelaide Oval hosts the first Test – a day-night match starting on 17 December.
Melburnians will then be able to celebrate the easing of lockdown restrictions when the traditional Boxing Day Test is held at the MCG, with discussions under way over how many fans can safely be allowed to attend."

Apparently* 25,000 Vile Vomits will be allowed into the MCG.
Bugger all for WA & Tas
Re: Upcoming Test Cricket
I think WA Cricket got McGowaned but disappointing for Tas Cricket.
Perhaps the Premier opened the Tas border a week or two late.

Agree. I guess CA are also looking to harvest what attendances they can get. The G Test will easily get 25k per day. CA will be hoping it goes the full 5 days.
With no footy I wonder whether MCG Trust took the opportunity to put the drop in pitch much earlier than usual.

Re: Upcoming Test Cricket
So Coaly will only play for the Bannies in T1 then fly home to be with his wife who is expecting their first baby in January.
Covid quarantine requirements make it impractical for him to return for the later Tests.
This has to be seen as a plus for Aus. E-Coli loves Aus batting conditions.

Given Warner has elected to chase $s, he has no recent red ball experience. Hopefully he gets a game in at least one of the two Oz A games pre T.1. Smith should be required to play in at least one as well.
If the poc fails, should he be dropped along with Burns.

Aus tour to SAf in Feb to become a home series
"Australia's scheduled Test series in South Africa next year may move to Perth, with early discussions between the two boards already taking place in the wake of the cancellation of the remainder of England's current tour due to issues around Covid-19.
According to the schedule for the World Test Championship, Tim Paine's Test side are meant to be facing South Africa in three Tests in South Africa between February 14 and March 13, a key assignment leading up to the tournament final in England in mid-2021, but the problems unveiled by England's visit have made the trip increasingly problematic."
...
While neutral venues such as the UAE have been used in recent times, ESPNcricinfo understands there have been talks between CSA and Cricket Australia around playing the series in Australia, given that conditions in the two countries are famously similar in terms of pace and bounce in particular.
Equally, Perth's western time zone makes it quite amenable to South Africa's given their separation only by the Indian Ocean - a day/night Test at the WACA Ground, for instance, would be likely to start play between 8am and 9am in South Africa.
-------------------------------------------
Covid farks things in a good way sometimes.

Looks like we’re getting a couple of Tests in Sri Lanka in January (presumably those postponed last winter/spring...)

Re: Upcoming Test Cricket
Looking ahead our next series is v Sth Africa, not that there is anything on the dire CA website.
I found this article from Nigels favourite SA journalist.
link
It is due to start in early March. I note Shield will resume ahead of the Tour but there is a clash with some T20 Tournament in NZ.
Surely CA will require all players in the running for the Saffie tour to play Shield. They can send Starc, Wade, Warner and Burns to NZ, maybe with Langer as specialist T20 coach. I assume there any number of hackeroos trundling round in the Babel to get a T20 gig.

Re: Upcoming Test Cricket
What the First Test v the Saffies could but will not look like:
Wilbur
Larkin or Hughes
Marnus
Smith (authorised to make the call on reviews)
Whiteman or Renshaw
Green
Paine (vc)
Cummins (c)
Neser or Patto
Zampa or Swepson
Haze.
Shield form should dictate spots in doubt.
