The fourth match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia is being played at the Melbourne ground, today is its third day. The Australian team dominated the first two days of this match, while the Indian team failed to make a good start on the third day as well. The Australian team won the toss and scored 474 runs in their first innings. In response, no special performance was seen from the Indian batsmen. Apart from Yashasvi Jaiswal, no other batsman could stay on the crease for long. In such a situation, once again the threat of follow-on remains on Team India.

Will rain disrupt the Melbourne Test?

According to AccuWeather's report, there is a high chance of rain on the third day of the Melbourne Test. Even though the game started on time, as the game progresses, the chances of rain will increase. As per Australian time, there is only a 2% chance of rain in Melbourne from 10 am to 12 noon. But there is a 49% chance of rain at 2 pm. After this, there is more than a 50% chance of rain between 3 pm and 5 pm.

In such a situation, there is a greater risk of rain in the second and third sessions of the day, due to which the second part of the third day is interrupted by rain. If this happens, then Team India may get some time to plan to make a comeback in the match. Let us tell you, earlier in the Gaba Test too, there was a disruption of rain, even then Team India was in danger of follow-on, although then it was successful in avoiding follow-on and did not lose the match due to rain. But there is a danger of defeat.

Team India has a chance to retain BGT.

Let us tell you, the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is currently with India. In such a situation, if the series ends in a draw this time, then Team India will retain this trophy. In such a situation, Team India is just 1 win away from retaining the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Therefore, the Melbourne Test is very important for the Indian team. On the other hand, to reach the final of the World Test Championship, the Indian team has to win both the remaining matches of this series.
