Australia will square off with West Indies in the second and last Test of the two-match series from January 25 onwards. It will be a day-night Test and Australia’s history with the pink ball suggests that the hosts will be eyeing for a spectacular finish to their Test summer.

West Indies’ tour of Australia 2024, 2nd Test:
- Date and Time: January 25; 4:00 am GMT/ 09:30 am IST/ 2:00 pm local

The Gabba Pitch Report:
The Gabba is synonymous with a dependable cricket pitch in Australia, well-known for its reliability and consistent characteristics. Historically, this legendary venue is known to offer significant bounce and carry, favouring the strengths of fast bowlers while providing stroke-makers with a reliable and even bounce. In the event that the match extends over an extended period, it is probable that the playing surface wil🎃l experience wear and tear, enabling the tall fast bowlers to capitalize on uneven bounce, especially in the good-length ﷽region, posing a substantial threat.
