MCG's Christmas message sparks debate among Aussie cricket fans

The Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) sparked debate with a Christmas Day message saying, "Happy Boxing Day Eve to all who celebrate." While many found it humorous, some criticized it for not saying "Merry Christmas," calling it "woke." The MCG responded to critics, emphasizing its cricket focus. Many commenters defended the joke, stating it was a harmless tradition among cricket fans. They noted that the outrage was unwarranted and reflected a misunderstanding of the message's intent. The Boxing Day Test, a significant event in Australian cricket, is set to begin soon, with expectations of a record crowd. Cricket Australia is preparing for high temperatures, advising fans to stay hydrated and take precautions.
