Brisbane Test: On rainy day, cold reality for India’s top order

Hindustan Times  

Brisbane: Between the grey skies, rain, sunshine and 33.1 overs, India found a way to slip up on Day 3 of the Brisbane Test of the Border Gavaskar Trophy. India skipper Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul walk off as play is finally called off due to bad light on the rain-hit Day 3 of the Brisbane Test against Australia. The day started with a short shower — start of play was delayed by a brief spell of rain — and ended due to bad light and a light drizzle but Australia used all the time at their disposal to push India into a difficult position at the Gabba. Alex Carey worked his way to an 88-ball 70 and most of Australia’s scoring was done off his bat but given the precarious position India find themselves in, they might be wondering whether batting the 16.1 overs could come back to haunt them. Our bowling attack has some great bowlers, and they’re attacking; they look to take wickets all the time, and hopefully that can continue.” Steve Smith, after close of play on Day 2, had spoken about how the top three Aussie batters had set the game up for the middle-order by batting almost 50 balls each.
