Check into your chosen hotel for your 3 night Hotel and Ticket Package. This sports-mad city is the perfect destination for the second Test and is the Australian mecca for all things trendy and tasty.
The perfect blend of rich cultural history and new-age trends, Melbourne is a place with something for everyone. Much of central Melbourne's gems are hidden off of the tram-graced thoroughfares in small lanes and arcades so make sure to visit Centre Place, a densely packed laneway of tiny cafe's, bars and Art Nouveau Street Lamps.
The day of the 2nd Test is here.
Can one of the 2 teams close out a 2-0 series victory here or will it all come down to the 3rd Test in Sydney? Make your way on foot or public transport to one of the world's most iconic stadiums, the MCG.
The Melbourne Cricket Ground is often considered the mecca of cricket and with a capacity of over 100,000, expect this to be a loud one!
