#2 Gabba, Brisbane (Australia)
Possibly one of the toughest and the most famous grounds in Australia, the Gabba in Brisbane has remained India’s nemesis ever since they first played a match here in 1947. In all, they have played 6 games at the Gabba, drawing only one in 2003. In that game, Australia had been shot out or 323 in the first innings, which was overhauled by India, who piled on 409, courtesy a fighting 144 by Sourav Ganguly. Zaheer Khan picked up 5 wickets in the first innings, and this match is always counted as one where the renewed valour of the Indian team was in full display.
Their latest outing here was in 2014. After a heart-winning performance at Adelaide in the first game of the tour under Virat Kohli, MS Dhoni was back in the second game to take over the reins but his miserable run in overseas matches as captain continued, with India succumbing to a 4-wicket defeat.
