What is a Boxing Day Test match in cricket?

December 26, 2022 01:21 PM

The Test match that starts on December 26, primarily at Australia's Melbourne Cricket Ground, is called Boxing Day Test.

According to a theory, December 26 came to be known as the Boxing Day as the servants in Victorian-era England were given boxes of gifts a day after Christmas.

Australia has hosted a Boxing Day Test every year since 1990.
