The pitch at Gabba is generally a fast, bouncy one that plays into Australia’s hands because of their fearsome bowling attack which is why every time a team tours Australia, Gabba is one venue they hate to play.

- Average first inning score : 337
- Average second inning score : 321
- Third inning average score : 242
- 4th inning average score : 163
- Matches won batting first : 25
- Matches won batting second : 23
Australia Team News
Australia were shocked and disappointed to not convert their last result into a win when they should have but they will also be relieved to get back to Gabba after all the all field drama. They absolutely love playing here and they will take a lot of confidence from the record that they have beaten India 5 out of 6 times on this venue.
Australia have lost Will Pucovski due to injury though and Marcus Harris has replaced him in the playing 11. Harris has the experience of playing against the Indian attack back in 2018 but this is a totally new Indian attack due to injury. All the other 10 players are same which featured in the last test.

- Steve Smith
- Marnus Labuschagne

India Team News
Indian team is currently going through some serious hard times where they’re affected both physically ( due to injuries ) and mentally (due to quarantine) but they have shown extreme courage to hang in this series up until third Test. From the last test, Hanuma Vihari and Ravindra Jadeja have been ruled out due to injuries. There are doubts over the fitness of Ravi Ashwin and Jasprit Bumrah and they are being monitored.
India have kept their playing 11 options available until the toss. There are a lot of permutations and combinations going on for India’s playing 11 at the moment. Team is facing some extraordinary situations right now with so many injuries that there might come a time when they’ll pick anyone who is fit irrespective of skills and positions. Here are 4 doubts going around with selections at the moment.
- Who will replace Hanuma Vihari? – Wriddhiman Saha is the most popular choice right now but if Mayank is fit, India can play him at 5 too to strengthen the batting. Even Prithvi Shaw is an option if Mayank is not fit.
- Who will replace Ravindra Jadeja? – Most probably Kuldeep Yadav will play for Jadeja. Washington Sundar is also an option.
- What if R Ashwin is not fit? – If he’s not fit, Kuldeep will play at Jadeja’s place and Washington Sundar or the one left between Mayank & Shaw might play for R Ashwin.
- What if Bumrah is not fit? – Going by the indications, Bumrah will be replaced by Shardul Thakur in case he doesn’t get fit.
All these questions will be answered at the toss at 5 AM so you’ll need to wake up early morning to finalize your team.
