Here are the stats of The Gabba, Brisbane:

The Gabba needs a little introduction. With the venue known for offering ample pace and bounce, pacers from both teams will be looking to make the most of the conditions. Curator David Sandurski has already hinted that the surface will be a typical Gabba pitch as it is very fresh.

"Different times of year definitely make it different, it can be a slightly different pitch," Sandurski told the Australian media ahead of the third Test.

"Pitches later in the season might have a bit more wear and tear while ones early in the season usually are a bit fresher and might have a bit more in them."

Conclusion:

While the stage is perfectly set for yet another fierce game of cricket between these two fierce rivals, rain could play spoilsport.

The conditions won't be easy for batsmen at all. With both teams full of world-class pacers, batsmen will have to be at their absolute best to do well.
