The Border–Gavaskar Trophy is a Test series played between India and Australia. It is currently played via the International Cricket Council’s future tours program, with varying lengths of time between matches. If the series is drawn, then the country holding the trophy previously retains it. The series is named after Australia’s Allan Border and India’s Sunil Gavaskar, the first two test cricketers to have scored over 10,000 Test runs in their respective careers, former captains of their respective teams, and were both world record holders for the most career runs scored in Test match cricket.
on 19th Jan 2021 India defeated Australia in 4th and final test in a thriller match by 3 wickets with just 18 balls left. It felt like a T20 match at the end. Rishabh Pant’s unbeaten 89*, Shubaman Gill’s 91 (146) and Cheteshwar Pujara’s 56 (211) made this historic win possible.
R Pant is also declared player of the match and Pat Cummins declared player of the series. Ajinkya Rahane is unbeaten Test Captain with 4 Wins and 1 Draw.
The amount of congratulations are coming from all over the world, especially cricketers….here are the highlights…
