Following some uncertainty<\/a> Cricket Australia is expected to announce Adelaide Oval will host a test match against India next year, reports FIVEAA Breakfast\u2019s David Penberthy.<\/h3>\n

Penbo said during Thursday\u2019s Breaking @ 8 segment:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have it on very good authority that sooner rather than later Cricket Australia is going to confirm that Adelaide will definitely be hosting one of the test matches next summer against India, and they will make that pledge regardless of whether the dispute over the day-night format has been resolved or not. The Indians have reservations about playing the day-night game\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can\u2019t argue with the numbers\u2026 90,000 people went to the second test a couple of weeks ago… the weather was appalling\u2026 the Gabba got 52,000 with perfect weather.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt sounds like it is getting to the point now where there will be recognition that in the same way that Sydney gets New Year\u2019s, Melbourne gets Boxing Day, that Adelaide will always get one of the marquee tests.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
