BGT 2024-25: Brisbane rain, 10 less balls on Day 1 of IND vs AUS 3rd Test cost Cricket Australia $1mn; here’s why

Live Mint  

Persistent showers in Brisbane and 10 less balls at the Gabba on the opening day of the third Test match between India and Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy on Saturday led Cricket Australia to a AUD 1 million in revenue loss after the authorities were forced to complete refund on tickets sold. According to Cricket Australia rules, fans are not eligible for a complete refund if a minimum of 15 overs is bowled during the day. "It turns out, a minimum of 15 overs is required to prevent fans being eligible for a full refund on tickets, meaning Cricket Australia was 10 balls away from potentially saving itself more than $1 million in refunds," a report at news.com.au read. India made early inroads with Jasprit Bumrah dismissing overnight openers Usman Khawaja and Nathan McSweeney cheaply before Nitish Kumar Reddy got rid of Marnus Labuschagne.
