What an exciting series this has been. Every member of the squad deserves credit - all the players, coaches & all the support staff. Cherish the victory everyone. A memorable day for Indian cricket

India completed a historic Test series victory over Australia recently as they pulled off a stunning four-wicket win at the Gabba in Brisbane. The Australian team was undefeated at the Gabba since 1988 and the Indian team succeeded in breaching the Fortress. Sachin Tendulkar lauded the fight and the resilience displayed by the team. He recently released the video of praising the side from his official YouTube channel.

The Indian team was missing many major names in this spectacular campaign. Virat Kohli returned after the first Test as he opted for paternity leave. Mohammed Shami, Umesh Yadav, KL Rahul were ruled out due to injuries. Ravindra Jadeja, R Ashwin, Hanuma Vihari and Navdeep Saini were injured after their heroic efforts in Sydney. India had brood in Washington Sundar and T Natarajan who had stayed behind as the net bowlers. The debutants impressed with their performances as India lifted the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

Tendulkar also lauded the character shown by this hastily-assembled unit. India were shot down for 36 – their lowest-ever team total in Test cricket – in Adelaide but they bounced back to claim the series 2-1. The Master Blaster went on call it the ‘greatest series victory in Indian cricket’s history’.
