Play on the first day of the third Test in Brisbane has been washed out with only 13.2 overs bowled, thanks to an almighty downpour at the Gabba .A large crowd had convened for the next chapter in Australia and India 's unfolding series but were left frustrated after the rain came early and never abated, with Australia 0-28 at the premature close of play.
At one point the Gabba outfield was almost entirely submerged in water as Brisbane was pelted with rain, but even as the outfield drained the rain never stopped for long enough for more play to be considered. Play will start half an hour earlier tomorrow, so 9:50am AEST, with a hopeful 98 overs to be bowled, so we'll be back bright and early then too.New Zealand's Tim Southee was given a guard of honour by England as he came out to bat in his final Test, with the hosts reaching 9-315 at the close of day one of the third Test in Hamilton.
Southee hit three sixes in his 10-ball 23 as the lower order plundered runs predominantly off Ben Stokes's short pitched bowling with the old ball.Gus Atkinson took 3-55 and Matthew Potts 3-75, who removed Latham for 63 in session two before sending back Kane Williamson for the fourth time in five Tests, and Glenn Phillips for five after tea.
