Rain ended the thrilling 3rd Test between India and Australia at Gabba in a draw, keeping the series tied at 1-1. Persistent rain allowed only 2.1 overs in India's second innings after Australia set a target of 275. Jasprit Bumrah and Akash Deep starred with the ball, taking crucial wickets. Earlier, their 39-run last-wicket partnership helped India avoid the follow-on. Australia's aggressive batting, led by Travis Head (Player of the Match), aimed to force a result, but weather dictated otherwise. Both teams now shift focus to the Boxing Day Test at Melbourne.
