The spectators had to face great disappointment on the first day of the third match of the five-Test Border Gavaskar Trophy being played between India and Australia. The game was canceled due to rain on the first day of the Test being played at Gabba in Brisbane. Only 13.2 overs could be played on the first day.

Let us tell you that Indian captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and decided to bowl first. With this, Rohit Sharma did something which no Indian captain had done in the last 10 years.

Team India did this work after 10 years

The third Test match between India and Australia started on 14 December at the Gabba ground in Brisbane. For the toss, Australian captain Pat Cummins tossed the coin and the coin fell in favor of Indian captain Rohit Sharma. Rohit decided to bowl after winning the toss. In this way, for the first time since 2014, Team India has won the toss on foreign soil and decided to bowl instead of batting first.

Team India had earlier won the toss and elected to bowl first in the Test played against New Zealand in Wellington in 2014.

Team India has suffered losses before also

It is noteworthy that whenever the Indian team has won the toss in Australia and decided to bowl first, it has never won. Team India has done this in eight matches in Australia. Out of these, it had to face defeat against the Kangaroo team in four matches. While four matches ended in a draw.

Whenever this happened since 1985, Australia won

Australia's record in Test cricket at the Gabba ground has been excellent.

At the same time, since 1985, whenever Australia has been invited to bat first after winning the toss on this historic ground, the opposing team has faced defeat. Australia has won the Gabba continuously since 1985, taking advantage of the opposition's decision to bat first. Team India has also done the same with Australia. There may be such a situation that Team India will have to take it to Brisbane. Captain Rohit Sharma's decision related to the toss should not cost Team India heavily.
