The action of the Border Gavaskar Trophy now shifts to Gabba, Brisbane. Australia (AUS) is all set to face India (IND) in the third test of India's tour of Australia 2024-25. This match will start on 14th December 2024 at 5:50 AM IST.
Ahead of the game, here is a look at the fantasy cricket tips, the pitch report, the top player picks and the best-predicted XIs for the fantasy contests of the match.
AUS vs IND 3rd Test Preview
India started the series brilliantly by winning the first Test at the Optus Stadium in Perth. The unit looked confident, and it seemed they would dominate the series with their momentum from the first game. However, as the two teams arrived in Adelaide and the action shifted to pink ball, Australia made a brilliant comeback.
The Australian bowling attack got the Indian team better in the first innings of the second Test at Adelaide, and India failed to make a comeback later in the game. Australia managed to win the match and level the series.
As the teams gear up for Gabba, it is worth remembering that the home team has a brilliant record here. However, the Aussies will be wary of how India performed at this venue in their last meeting. India need to win the rest of the three matches to ensure a WTC final qualification; on the other hand, Australia need two wins to achieve the same. With WTC final, legacy and prestige at stake, the third Test between the two teams promises to be another exciting encounter.

Pitch Report - The latest pictures of the Gabba pitch reveal a tinge of green on the surface. The pitch is already known to provide bounce and pace to the pacers, and there might be a bit of lateral movement in this case. Overcast conditions are predicted throughout the match, so it will be difficult for the batters on this track. The players who are adept at handling bounce and are good with horizontal bat shots might get success here.
