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.

Australia finished the day on 28-0 with Usman Khawaja 19 not out and Nathan McSweeney on four after India captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and chose to field. 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.
