Australian cricket team will tour India for two match test series and three one day internationals. India is first scheduled to host seven match ODI series against Australia but as per the request of BCCI, Cricket Australia accepted the proposal sent by BCCI of modifying the fixtures. This is not the first time the Indian board has made changes to a tour itinerary. Earlier this year, Cricket South Africa agreed to replace a five-match ODI series with two Tests and three ODIs. BCCI has changed the tour schedule against Australia, now the first and second test match will start one day earlier than the initial announced schedule. First Test match at Mohali will be played from October 1st to October 5th 2010 while second test match between India and Australia will be played from October 9th to 13th October 2010 in Bangalore. The venue of three ODI’s has been announced by BCCI which will be Kochi, Goa and Vishakapatnam. The first ODI’s will be played on October 17th at Kochi, 2nd at Vizag on 20th October and final ODI will be played on 24th October 2010 at Goa.
