A bit of a setback for Australia midway through the final session on Day One of the Boxing Day Test, with Shaun Marsh and debutant Joe Burns falling to make it 5/224 just after drinks at the MCG. Steve Smith reached another half-century and looks to be all that stands between India and rolling the hosts for a moderate first innings score. We are an hour away from kick off for the first match of a Hyundai A-League Boxing Day double-header, with Melbourne City, fresh off a dramatic Derby win, taking on league leaders Perth Glory at AAMI Park. Here is the team news: MELBOURNE CITY: Velaphi, Wielaert, Kisnorbo, Chapman, Paartalu, Melling, Mooy, Garuccio, Ramsay, Williams, Dugandzic. Subs: Redmayne, Miller, Brown, Koren, Duff. PERTH GLORY: Vukovic, Risdon, Thwaite, Djulbic, Jamieson, Zadkovich, Griffiths, Garcia, de Silva, Harold, Keogh. Subs: Duncan, Clasiby. O’Neill, Sidnei, Maclaren. And a quick update in the Rolex Sydney To Hobart, and Perpetual Loyal is the outright leader as she passes east of Wollongong, ahead of Ragamuffin by 1 nautical mile, with Comanche and Wild Oats XI 2 and 3 nautical miles back respectively. The leader is ahead of the race record, but with conditions set to change soon, that looks likely to change.
