We had terrible weather in Brisbane today and showers got even heavier as night approached. First, Indian batting innings was shortened for 45 overs. then some more rain interrupting Australian chase which was cut from 192 in 43 overs to 141 in 26 overs. Groundsmen did wonderful job to get this much of cricket possible after yesterday's rain.. now, lemme ask you - are you aware of an Australian indoor stadium where cricket can be played? Telstra Dome it is called.
