In Sydney, all-time greats of the game such as Steve Waugh, Richie Benaud, and Belinda Clark have been honoured, and David Warner's name has also been included.

Alex Carey has retaliated against Allan Border's critique of Steve Smith, denying that Australia's star batter did not have the patience required to succeed in India. After falling to 91 all out in the second innings, Australia was hammered by an innings and 132 runs in three days in the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar series in Nagpur.
