England and Australia will play a one-off Test at MCG which will be the 150th Test between the two sides.
Since 1882, England and Australia have competed for the Ashes, which is now hosted alternately every four years. The most recent series took place in the winter of 2025-26, with Australia winning 4-1, with the next edition scheduled for the summer of 2027 in England.
In March of next year, both teams will play a one-time pink-ball Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground to commemorate the 150th anniversary of their first encounter without the Ashes being at risk.
Similar to CA's intention to organize a Big Bash League (BBL) between Melbourne Renegades and Perth Scorchers in Chennai this December, Greenberg said it should be taken into consideration if an exhibition Test between England and Australia might be brought to India.
"We'd have to be open to consider all options. Our relationship with the ECB, but also the BCCI, is very strong. And clearly, there are opportunities in India to put more content into certain areas. That's not something we are currently planning, but it would certainly be open for consideration,” Greenberg said on the BBC's Stumped podcast.
An ECB assessment earlier this year that predicted English cricket will turn a profit as a result of India's just-concluded white-ball tour to England summed up the strength of India's market. In contrast, even though they will host the men's and women's Ashes in 2027, they anticipate financial losses.
"Attention should be drawn to the fact that the ECB's revenues are inherently cyclical, reflecting the scheduling of high-value broadcast series by opposition," the report said.
Any plans for a potential relocation of a test between Australia and England will need confirmation from both Cricket Australia and the England and Wales Cricket Board, as well as cooperation from the BCCI.
However, Greenberg thinks that such a move will further solidify Test cricket's place in the contemporary ecosystem, given the ongoing rise of franchise cricket and the Indian Premier League's ever-expanding presence, both in its flagship competition and in its expanding network into other countries, including The Hundred. He also contended that it will be hard to find time in a schedule that is already full.
"I think Test cricket between us, England and India, is still very strong, probably bucking the trend as to other parts of the world. So, we want to make sure we continue to grow it and strengthen it. The challenge for all of us in global cricket is there are only 365 days in a schedule, and we probably need another month or two if we actually can generate the content we want," Greenberg said.
