Check out the Brisbane weather forecast for the third test of the BGT 2024-25.
The third test of the BGT 2024-25 got underway on Saturday morning at the Gabba in Brisbane at its scheduled time. India captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and elected to bowl first, citing overcast conditions.
However, as was expected, rain made its first appearance in just the sixth over of Australia’s innings. It halted play for 30 minutes.
50 minutes later, rain arrived for the second time in the first session and this time it was a proper shower. No more play was possible in the first session and lunch was called. The start of the second session was delayed as well since the rain hadn’t relented.
At the time of writing, it’s been three hours since play was halted in the first session.
In the lead-up to the match, there had been talks of threat from the rain over this match.

Rain is forecasted to have a significant impact on this match as the forecast for all five days of this test in Brisbane isn’t promising for cricket.
For day 1 of this test, the probability of precipitation is 100%, according to Accuweather, which says the weather will see “considerable clouds with thunderstorms.” On day 2, the chances of precipitation is 46%, with a shower in the morning.
On days 3 and 4, the probability of precipitation is 67% with a couple morning showers predicted. The day 5 of the test is forecasted to receive a thunderstorm in the afternoon and has a 55% probability of precipitation.
From day 2 to 5, there are showers and thunderstorms predicted but they would eventually make way for some cricket to happen. In such a case, with the WTC points on the line, expect the teams to be more proactive during their batting innings to force a result.
