Gabba Test: Heavy showers stop play again, India struggle at 27/3

The start of play on day three and India's innings were also slightly delayed due to rain

Brisbane: Heavy showers interrupted the proceedings in the second session of the third day’s play in the third Test between India and Australia here on Monday.

India were struggling at 27 for three when the covers came on and the players headed back to the dressing room. Earlier, just as Josh Hazlewood induced a nick from Virat Kohli to account for the veteran batter for the second time this series, the heavens opened up leading to an interruption and forcing an early lunch.
