The third match of Border Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia is being played at Gabba, Brisbane. Both the teams are currently tied in the series after winning one match each. However, both the teams would now like to take the lead in the series through the third match. There are two changes in Team India for the Gaba Test. Akash Deep and Ravindra Jadeja have got place in the playing eleven in place of fast bowler Harshit Rana and spinner Ravichandran Ashwin. The Australian team has made an important change in its playing eleven.

Australia's bowling attack strengthened with Hazlewood's return

Josh Hazlewood has returned to the Kangaroo team and Scott Bolland has been dropped.

With the arrival of Hazlewood, the bowling attack of the Australian team has once again become sharp. Australia's three fast bowlers Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood have bowled brilliantly in the Test at Gabba. We are not saying this, rather the figures themselves testify.
