What You Should Know About the Brisbane Weather Before the Ashes Test
Despite the wet conditions on the east coast, the first Ashes Test in Brisbane is set to be an excellent test for the hosts. Rain will affect the first three days, while temperatures on Day Four are predicted to be 32 degrees – perfect conditions for batting. As a result, wet conditions could prove crucial in the match. As a result, here is what you should know about the weather in Brisbane before the first Ashes Test.
Inclement weather has already disrupted the Australian and English teams’ preparations for the Test series. On Wednesday, the rain hit the city and the intrasquad match was postponed. Thursday is expected to be dry, but the weather is not entirely clear. The first day of the Ashes in Brisbane could be a washout. Despite these challenges, the team has no time to prepare for the match.
Meanwhile, the rain in Brisbane has thrown the final preparations for the Ashes series into turmoil. England were due to start their four-day match against the Lions at the Ian Healy Oval today. However, heavy rain is forecast for today and tomorrow, meaning that the Test opener may not even go ahead. Additionally, Australia’s intra-squad match is also likely to be postponed.
The first Ashes Test will begin at midnight in England and 10am in Brisbane. While heavy rain is expected during the first three days of the series, the forecast is not bad. With enough play, a result should be achievable. And the first day’s inclement weather has hampered England’s preparations. Meanwhile, a powerful weather system named La Nina has hindered England’s warm-up cricket.
The first Ashes Test is likely to be cloudy and rainy, and the BOM has issued a seventy percent chance of rain in Brisbane. However, the top temperature is expected to hover around thirty degrees. Despite these weather conditions, it should be an enjoyable Test match for the hosts. This will undoubtedly boost the spirits of both teams.

On Day four of the Ashes series, the best weather for batting is predicted for sunny 32 degrees. The English team have been hampered by the wet weather in Australia. They’ve failed to win the Gabba series since 1986. In fact, England have only won one series Down Under in the past 35 years. The weather is set to improve over the next few days. The final test is set for Saturday, April 28th.
The first Test is arguably Australia’s best chance of winning the Ashes. However, this is still not a guarantee, as rain can occur any day. As the Test begins in Brisbane on Wednesday, it’s possible that the first day will be the wettest. However, rain is unlikely to disrupt the Test, and rain is likely to fall in the afternoon. This could mean a damper first day for the team.
The batting conditions in Brisbane have not been great for England. They have lost six of their last eight trips to Brisbane, including two Tests in recent years. The weather has also not been conducive to batting, with temperatures at the Gabba reaching highs of 36°C. However, the team has never been able to win an Ashes series at the Gabba. This is largely due to the weather.
