LIVE Boxing Day Test: All eyes on Australia’s debutant; India spring selection surprise
Darren Rice has travelled from Castlemaine today to watch the cricket live for the first time in 40 years.
And this time he’s brought along wife Maree, who’s admits she’s not a fan of the cricket. She’s looking forward to beating the heat and staying cool.

“Maree’s never been. But because we were in the box, I coaxed her into coming,” says Darren.
He likes Australia’s chances this Test — and wants to see them open the batting this Boxing Day. And when it comes to the debut of 19-year-old Sam Konstas, Darren just “hopes he’ll get bat to ball.”
”It’s good for a young fellow… Fingers crossed. Let’s hope he does well.”
