Following the ceremony, the two Prime Ministers embarked on a celebratory lap around the grounds. They then proceeded to the center of the field, accompanied by the two team captains, to greet the players from their respective nations. The National Anthem was played, and the esteemed leaders settled into their seats within the stadium to witness the live action unfold before them.
Australia has won the toss and elected to bat first. The visiting team has already secured a spot in the final of the World Test Championship with a victory in the 3rd Test match. However, they are determined to avoid a series loss and maintain their winning momentum.
India is facing a crucial match that they must win to secure their spot in the final of the ICC event. A victory here would guarantee their place in the final without relying on other teams. However, a defeat would leave their fate in the hands of Sri Lanka. Meanwhile, Sri Lanka is currently engaged in a two-match Test series against New Zealand.
