More bad weather in Brisbane ruined a potentially intriguing finale to the third Test between Australia and India on Wednesday and left the series tied at 1-1, reports BBC.com.
After gaining a first-innings lead of 185, Australia wickets tumbled as they chased quick runs in their second innings in an attempt to force a result at the Gabba.
They slipped to 33-5, Jasprit Bumrah ripping through the top order again, before captain Pat Cummins slogged 22 from 10 balls and declared on 89-7.
That positive move set India 275 to win from a minimum of 54 overs, but bad light stopped play with the tourists 8-0 in the third over of their chase.
Rain, which decimated much of the Test, arrived shortly after and the players shook hands at 15:30 local time.
The five-match series resumes with the Boxing Day Test in Melbourne on 26 December (23:30 GMT, 25 December), for which a crowd close to 90,000 is expected for the opening day.
Scores: Australia 445 (Head 152, Smith 101, Carey 70, Bumrah 6-76) & 89 for 7 dec (Bumrah 3-18) drew with India 260 (Rahul 84, Jadeja 77, Cummins 4-81, Starc 3-83) & 8 for 0.
