How are you planning on doing your trip?
If you book the whole tour through an official tour party they'll have guaranteed tickets as part of the package. Make sure you book early, as in the day the brochures come out - these usually sell out very fast indeed. I'm sure you can find the official Australian tour companies on the internet.
But if you're gonna do your own thing then you'll basically have two choices, as the MCC membership waiting list is something like 20 years.
1) Try to get a ticket through the public ballot. The ballot application forms go out sometime aroung the preceding October. You'll need an obliging UK-based friend to whose address the form/tickets can be sent.
2) Get fleeced by a tout on the day
Whatever, should be good fun, already looking forward to it.
