The Australian national cricket team arrived at the city on Friday morning through a chartered flight from New Delhi, ahead of the first T20I encounter of the three-match series scheduled to be played at the IS Bindra PCA Stadium in Mohali on September 20.
On Saturday evening, the Aaron Finch-led side will have a practice session under the floodlights at the Mohali stadium, which is hosting its first international T20 game since 2018 and the first international game at 100% crowd capacity after the Covid-19 pandemic broke out.
PCA’s new management, led by president Gulzarinder Chahal and secretary Dilsher Khanna, is leaving no stone unturned to make it a memorable experience for the fans. Also, PCA is planning to hold a programme under Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav on the eve of the match.
