The ICC has rated the MCG pitch used for the third India vs Australia Test as "average", very similar rating to the Perth Stadium track for the second Test. According to a report in Sydney Morning Herald, "The Melbourne Cricket Club's bid to hold on to the Boxing Day Test has been boosted after the MCG was given an average rating by the International Cricket Council following India's 137-run win.
As per reports, the ICC confirmed the rating on Tuesday, a marked improvement from the three demerit points that they earned after last year's drawn Ashes Test. A rating of average means that the ground does not get demerit points from ICC.
