India lost Sourav Ganguly for 59 before rain ended play early on day two of the three-day warm-up match against Victoria at the Junction Oval in Melbourne on Friday.
Rahul Dravid was unbeaten on a sedate 38 and Yuvraj Singh was not out on 6 as India reached 133 for four in 48 overs, with just 10 overs being bowled on the second day.

After a delayed start to the day's proceedings due to wet outfield, pacer Allan Wise scalped Ganguly for his fourth wicket of the match.
Resuming on overnight score of 110 for three, Ganguly decided to go after the hosts. He clipped Wise through the mid-wicket region and then cut him for a four before the bowler had his revenge in the same over.
Wise pitched it on the middle stump and induced a flick from Ganguly which found Aiden Blizzard at mid-wicket.
Ganguly's 59 came off 99 balls and included nine boundaries, adding 83 runs for the fourth wicket with Dravid.
Yuvraj too looked in trouble against Wise even though Dravid looked unflappable.
