Rain spoiled the game… Gabba Test between India and Australia ended in a draw, series tied at 1-1
Sports news: The last day of the test match between India and Australia ended very disappointingly due to rain. After the match was drawn, the series is now tied at 1-1.
India's first innings: Team all out for 260
The Indian team was all out for 260 runs in the first innings and was 185 runs behind Australia's score of 445. However, after avoiding follow-on late on Tuesday night, it was decided that Australia would have to play the second innings.
The brilliance of Indian bowlers
Indian bowlers performed brilliantly in the second innings. Jasprit Bumrah started by dismissing Usman Khawaja for only 8 runs. After this, Australia's top order batting continued to disintegrate in front of the Indian fast bowlers.
Bumrah also sent Marnus Labuschagne to the pavilion in his next over. At the same time, Mohammad Siraj and Akash Deep also bowled impressively.
Kangaroo captain's contribution
However, Travis Head and Alex Carey struggled for some time and hit fours and sixes. After this, captain Pat Cummins came and scored 22 runs in 10 balls and took Australia's lead beyond 250. Bumrah continued his brilliant bowling and also took the wicket of Cummins. After this Australia declared the innings with a lead of 274 runs.
India's second innings: Rain took away the thrill
When India's opening pair Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul came on the field with a target of 275 runs, only 8 runs were scored when tea time was declared early due to bad light. After this, rain stopped the game completely and the match was declared a draw.
