Doing away from the tradition of opening the five-Test series for the Border-Gavaskar trophy at the Gabba, India started their tour with a commanding victory in Perth before Australia bounced back strongly in Adelaide, but with the series currently locked 1-1 and with a place in the ICC World Test Championship final at stake, more critically for the tourists, a stiffer challenge awaits the Indians in Brisbane, where the pitch is expected to have more life and bounce during the pre-Christmas window.
Over the past couple of years, the Gabba, once the fortress of the Australians, hasn't yielded the desired outcome for the home side, especially when India broke the 32-year hegemony with a series-defining victory in 2021.
The hosts had been undefeated at the Gabba since 1988 prior to that match, and have also since been shocked by West Indies at the ground last summer.
