The third Test between India and Australia is being played in Brisbane. Both the teams are tied in the series after winning one match each. Now they have entered this match with the intention of taking the lead by registering a win. But a 'bad omen' happened to India during the toss on the first day of the game. If proved to be true then Team India may have to lose the match. In fact, till now in Australia, the Indian team has never been able to win the match after winning the toss and bowling first, whereas Rohit Sharma has chosen to bowl after winning the toss in Brisbane.

Rohit made Ganguly's mistake?

Looking at India's record after winning the toss and choosing to bowl first in Australia, it seems that Rohit Sharma has made a mistake. Before him, 21 years ago in 2003, Indian captain Sourav Ganguly had made this mistake. Even at that time Team India had to face defeat. Let us tell you that after winning the toss in Australia, India decided to bowl first 8 times. During this period, he had to face defeat in 4 matches, while 4 matches were drawn.

Apart from this, another thing that has gone against India in the toss is Australia's record. According to the report, since 1985, whenever the opposing team asked the Kangaroo team to bat first at Gabba.

She never lost. Looking at these two figures, it can be said that bad omen has happened to the Indian team during the toss.

Record of first bowling in Gabba

After the year 2000, 24 matches have been played on the Gaba ground. During this period, the average score while batting first is 349 runs. However, in the last few years, bowling teams have benefited. Teams bowling first on fresh pitches have been successful in restricting the opposition team below 200 runs twice.

On this pitch, fast bowlers generally get more bounce and pace.

Due to this, in the last 24 years, pacers have taken 561 wickets at an average of 31. Whereas spinners have taken 142 wickets at an average of 42. Apart from this, in the total 66 matches played on this ground so far, batting first has won 26 times.
