Virat Kohli had a discussion with the Indian players before practice in Brisbane.
India's woes are mounting in the World Test Championship-2023-25. In fact, there is a chance of rain in Brisbane on all five days of the Gabba Test between India and Australia from December 14.

Currently, BGT is running on a one-to-one tie. Australia won the previous match in Adelaide by 10 wickets while India won the Perth Test by 295 runs.
