IND vs AUS 3rd Test: Weather forecast for Day 1 in Brisbane ahead of India vs Australia

India vs Australia Day 1 has an 88% chance of being washed out, as the weather forecast suggests constant rain on December 14.

The highly anticipated third Test between Australia and India at the Gabba in Brisbane, starting Saturday, is surrounded in uncertainty due to weather forecasts predicting frequent rain disruptions on the opening days. With the series level at 1-1, the weather could play a crucial role in determining the result of this key encounter.

India has a challenging record at this venue, with only one win in seven attempts. That historic victory came in 2021 under Ajinkya Rahane’s leadership, where India achieved a thrilling three-wicket win over the hosts.

Rain to affect the match

Weather reports indicate that seam bowlers are expected to benefit from the overcast conditions. With both teams boasting strong fast bowlers, it is likely that the team winning the toss will opt to bowl first—especially India, which has struggled with batting first in recent matches, leading to collapses.

In the current series, India has batted first in both Tests but has been unable to exceed the 200-run mark in either innings.
