The opening day of the 3rd Test between India and Australia at The Gabba in Brisbane was cut short by persistent rain, with only 13.2 overs of play possible. Australia ended the day at 28/0, with Usman Khawaja and Nathan McSweeney solid against a testing opening spell from Jasprit Bumrah. Indian captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and elected to field, introducing Ravindra Jadeja and debutant Akash Deep into the playing XI. The series, tied 1-1, hinges on the outcome of this Test, but further weather interruptions are expected, complicating the fate of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and WTC prospects.
