150th Anniversary Test: Australia vs England - Accommodation & Ticket Only

-

Mark your calendars, cricket fans! In March 2027, Australia and England will face off in a historic one-off Test at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) to celebrate 150 years of Test cricket from 11 - 15 March 2027.

This special match is modelled on the legendary Centenary Test of 1977, when Australia triumphed by 45 runs - remarkably matching their margin of victory in the very first Test back in 1877. In fact the 1977 clash really was one to remember, with two batsmen scoring centuries and 11 wickets taken by Dennis Lillee. We certainly hope the 150th anniversary game will be as thrilling!

The 2027 historic fixture is just one of several enticing prospects on the Australian cricket calendar over the next few years, with the country set to host the Ashes in 2026, too. These events promise to be unforgettable experiences for cricket fans around the world.
