Australia vs India third Check Day 2: Ball-by-ball commentary from Brisbane

11:48 IST:

After selecting to bowl first, India struggled to capitalize on the beneficial overhead circumstances. The bowlers lacked consistency of their strains and lengths permitting the Australian openers to settle in. With minimal motion off the pitch, the guests not often compelled the batters into making errors. In consequence, Australia’s openers, notably Usman Khawaja, seemed assured and composed on the crease. McSweeney, regardless of going through some testing deliveries, held his floor nicely. Simply because the Indian pacers have been starting to seek out their footing, rain arrived for the second time within the day and this time round, it was persistent which meant no additional play was doable.
