Thanks to an absolutely disgusting 5 days of weather, India has avoided defeat and drawn the 3rd test against Australia. It is therefore credited for the result which was pretty handy for India given it looked like a certain Aussie victory on day 2.
The Indian cricket team, as well as their Government, are therefore insisting that Brisbane Weather take out the man of the match accolade.
A spokesperson for the Indian cricket team told The Times,
“We acknowledge the fine bowling of Jasprit Bumrah and the fine batting by Travis Head but in all seriousness it’s obvious who did the most this match. Thankyou Brisbane you disgusting, muggy shithole”
Thanks to Brisbane Weather over half the test match was delayed. The broken rhythm and lack of time combined nicely with India’s tail enders avoiding the follow on. This was a recipe for a drawn test match.
The series remains at 1-1 which will be a sore point for Australia who looked almost certain to make it 2-1.
Cricket fans in general however are calling for Brisbane to be stripped of test matches until it can get its weather under control.
Cheers Brisbane Weather, you can look forward to a very generous payday at the next IPL auction.
