Australian players celebrated Christmas with their families at MCG

The scene at the Melbourne Cricket Ground looked like the annual function of a nursery school as the children of Australian cricketers had a lot of fun here on the occasion of Christmas. Australian players enjoyed the festival with their families before the match against India.

Australian captain Pat Cummins’ wife Becky and Mitch Marsh’s wife Greta were present on the occasion and enjoyed a quiet moment with their children. Steve Smith was accompanied by his father Peter as the teenage son of team head coach Andrew McDonald was seen bowling the ball into the net with Travis Head. The family of Sam Constance, who is set to make his international debut in the fourth Test against India, have flown from Sydney to Melbourne to see their son don the baggy green for the first time. Children were jumping on the field and their parents were enjoying it a lot as they rarely get such opportunities due to being busy with cricket.
