AUS vs IND 5th Test Sydney Weather Prediction: India and Australia are currently in Sydney preparing for the fifth Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy which is scheduled to take place from January 3 to 7 at the iconic Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). Australia are currently leading 2-1 in the five Test match series and the final Test will be the last chance for India to draw the series.
However, there is bad news for the Rohit Sharma-led side as the last two days of the Pink Test in Sydney will most likely to be affected by rain as per the weather forecast.
As per Google Weather, on day one, the game will start under a thick cloud cover. There is a chance of rain by 25 per cent, which will reduce to just five per cent on day two. The second day will be bright and sunny as will Sunday, with the temperatures also rising to the mid-thirties.
The last two days of the match could be affected by inclement weather, with showers starting on day four end and continuing overnight. A constant drizzle is also likely on day five of the Test.
Also, as per BBC Weather, there could be some rain on Friday afternoon. During the weekend, there will be some sunshine. There is a 68 per cent chance of rain on the night of Monday, day four of the match, but the weather is likely to be clear during the day's play. Day five, however, is likely to have heavy showers, which will continue throughout the day.
What happens if the Sydney Test ended in a draw
If the Sydney Test ended without a result then Australia who are currently leading 2-1 will win the series and qualify for the World Test Championship (WTC) final scheduled to take place in England in June. However, if India wins the match and draws the series, not only they will retain the trophy again, but will also keep themselves alive in the WTC race, given the results of the Australia-Sri Lanka series next year go their way.
