Hobart is ready to put forward their pitch to take on one of the five test matches this summer for the Ashes series against England.
Tasmania have been forced to cancel Australia's upcoming match against Afghanistan in Hobart.
Tasmanian Cricket chief executive Dom Baker said the scheduled November Test against Afghanistan would be scrapped following the Taliban takeover within the nation which resulted in a lack of support for their women’s cricket program.
“It (the Hobart Test) will be formally postponed indefinitely this week … that will come out in the next couple of days,’’ Baker told Hobart’s Triple M today.
