Cricket Australia (CA) has announced Pakistan fan zones will be created for the Australia-Pakistan white-ball series in November ensuring a vibrant start to the men’s international summer. This exciting initiative aligns with CA’s Multicultural Action Plan, which is designed to foster inclusivity and provide brilliant experiences for cricket fans from diverse backgrounds.
The Pakistan men’s cricket team will feature in three ODIs and three T20Is, commencing 4 November at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG).
CA has designated specific seating areas for Pakistani fans across all six venues. Within the venues, fans will be able to access prayer areas, as well enjoy a selection of halal food, ensuring that fans can enjoy the matches comfortably and with cultural considerations in mind.
CA has previously announced the creation of India fan zones for the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy, enhancing the match-day experience for Indian fans with dedicated seating areas at all five venues, including the MCG and SCG. Fans will be encouraged to wear blue attire and bring traditional instruments to help create an electrifying atmosphere.
Details about ticket sales for the Pakistan and Indian fan zones will be released next week.

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.
