Play was abandoned on the first day of the third Test between Australia and India at the Gabba in Brisbane after rain fell for much of Saturday.
BRISBANE -
Only 13.2 overs were bowled during the first session and there was no further play, much to the disappointment of the big crowd that had filed into the Gabba. However, the rain persisted throughout the day and the umpires eventually called off play midway through the final session. He troubled McSweeney in particular, but 35 minutes later much heavier rain sent the players from the field for the second time.
