Expect big hits and big excitement when Australia take on Pakistan in the five-match Victoria Bitter One-Day International Series.

The series begins on 13 January at the Gabba in Brisbane, before a blockbuster match at the MCG in Melbourne on 15 January and the WACA in Perth on 19 January. The series then moves to the SCG in Sydney on 22 January and culminates with an Australia Day spectacle at Adelaide Oval on 26 January.

Australia, the top ranked side in ODIs, will be looking to stamp its authority on this series played around the country in the heart of the summer, while Pakistan will be looking for ODI redemption after bowing out of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 Quarter Final at the hands of Australia. Of particular interest will be how Australia’s batting line up fares against Pakistan’s imposing young bowlers.

What fans can be assured of is that both teams will be looking to play an exciting brand of cricket that will make the Victoria Bitter ODI Series unmissable cricket action.

 

Support Independent Community Journalism

Dear Reader,

The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.

We operate independently.

Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.

When you support The Indian Sun, you support:

• Independent reporting on issues affecting migrant communities
• Coverage of local and state decisions that shape daily life
• A platform for small businesses and community groups
• Media training that builds skills within the community
• Journalism accountable to readers

We cannot cover everything, but we work to cover what matters.

If you value thoughtful reporting that reflects Australia’s diversity, we invite you to contribute. Every donation helps us maintain the quality and consistency of our work.

Please consider making a contribution today.

Thank you for your support.

The Indian Sun Team
