150 years of Test cricket. One historic match.

In March 2027, Australia and England return to the Melbourne Cricket Ground to mark 150 years since the first ever Test match was played on this very ground. 

This landmark occasion will celebrate the birth of Test cricket, brought into the modern era with a Day-Night Test under the lights of one of the sport's most iconic venues.

It's a chance to witness history, where it began, and you can experience it with our official tailor-made experiences.

Pre-register your interest to be the first to know once our experiences go on sale.


"Staged across five days from 11 to 15 March 2027, the 150th Anniversary Test will be played as a men’s Day-Night Test, adding a modern edge to a historic milestone in international cricket. As the sun sets and the floodlights come on, the atmosphere inside the MCG is expected to be unlike anything seen before for a Test match."
