Despite being surrounded by high-rise buildings, extensive hospitals, packed roads with ferns and forest fires, and beautiful cafés, the historic Gabba in Brisbane seems to be a peaceful heaven. Life still lurks under its surface, and now, on Saturday, December 14, might the stomping of speeding boots, the crash of the red cherry falling into seasoned willow, and exuberant cheer prevail over the silence at Gabba here?
The ongoing series of historic Border Gavaskar Trophy 2024–25 showdowns seems to be a turning point. In the thick of a drawn-out struggle in the five-match series, this forthcoming third Test match between Australia and India, slated to commence on December 14, might give a fascinating look at how these two powerhouses will play in the remainder of the series after levelling up a series at 1-1.
The last two encounters at WACA Ground in Perth and Adelaide Oval seemed unstoppable. In the series opening match, India registered a 295-run win, followed by the Aussies' win by ten wickets. However, the spice increased after the incident between India's star pacer Mohammed Siraj and Australia's explosive batter Travis Head, while rivals captain Pat Cummins and Rohit Sharma have gone easy on such matters.
Notably, Rohit Sharma and his men return to the scene after their historic 2021 win at the Gabba. Team India famously breached what was considered as Aussie's fortress, becoming the first-ever nation to win a Test match in Brisbane in 33 years. Team India aims to repeat their historic feat another time in this Test match. On the other hand, Pat Cummins and his men seek redemption for their previous Test loss here.

Player Picks
Travis Head AUS | BAT
Aussie star batter Travis Head is in great form. The left-handed batter struck a century in the second Test match in Adelaide and will be eager to showcase his form with bat once again. One can look to have Head as a "captaincy pick" considering his stupendous form with bat at the top order. Head is one of the players to watch out for from the Australia camp.
Jasprit Bumrah IND | BOWL
Team India's vice captain has picked up 12 wickets in the last two matches and seems to be in a great form. The right-arm pacer can be your captaincy pick considering his form with the ball in the historic BGT showdown. The 31-year-old cricketer will be looking to pose big threat to the hosts team to make sure India takes 2-0 lead in Brisbane.
Mitchell Starc AUS | BOWL
The left-arm pacer showcased his classic form and played a huge role in levelling up the series in the Adelaide Test match. The star seamer will be once again looking to showcase his great form in the third Test match at the Gabba in Brisbane and will be looking to demolish the struggling Indian batting line up to help his take taking 2-1 lead.
Yashasvi Jaiswal IND | BAT
Team India opening batter has showcased his great form in the series opener but failed to replicate that in the Adelaide fixture. The 22-year-old cricketer might step up in this Test match.
Rishabh Pant IND | WK
The Gabba hero from 2021 series can be your top pick in the Dream11 team. The wicketkeeper-batter has failed to mark his impact in the series, but he might turn the things here in the third Test match.
Pat Cummins AUS | BOWL
The Australia skipper Pat Cummins seems in the great form in the series. The right-arm pacer will be stepping up with both bat and the ball in this Test match to make sure his side thwarts the Indian team. He has picked up 10 wickets in the series so far.
Nitish Kumar Reddy IND | ALL
Team India all-rounder has made 163 runs in the last two Test matches and will be looking to continue his form in this Test match with both bat and the ball.
