Rain thwarted the first Test between India and Australia from developing into an pulsating contest, washing almost the whole of third day's play at the Gabba.
After the entire first two sessions were washed out, only 32 balls were bowled before another spell of steady drizzle brought the game to an early halt on a gloomy day.
In the brief period, Australia failed to add to their overnight score of 323 as they lost their last wicket off the first ball of the day.
Stuart MacGill tried to pull a loosener from Ajit Agarkar but ended up skying a simple catch to Akash Chopra in the gully region.
The wicket gave Agarkar figures of three for 90, while Zaheer Khan was the pick of the bowler for the tourists with five for 95.
At close, India were 11 for no loss with opening batsmen Akash Chopra and Virender Sehwag on an identical score of five.
