India have defeated Australia by 3 wickets winning the Test series 2-1 and retaining the Border-Gavaskar trophy. What makes this so much sweeter is that this a 2nd-tier Indian side playing at the Gabba, where Australia hadn’t lost in 32 years.
It is special. And Twitter knows it!
The greatest test win. The Pants, Gills, Washingtons, Sirajs….just different

Fitting that Benedict Cumberbatch saying ‘hope is a dangerous thing’ in between breaks during this test.

This has to be on par with the 2001 #BorderGavaskarTrophy series.

It will be very difficult for India to win the trophy again with a lot of injured players…

@ajinkyarahane88 led the side brilliantly, giving a lot of confidence to youngsters and Pujara exhibited his steely resolve once again. Can’t forget the young bowling unit. Fantastic team effort💪💪 #AUSvsIND

The most incredible series win. As a test match Kolkata 2001 was at par with Gabba 2020. As a series, this series win ranks higher. You couldn’t have predicted this after 36 all out. This is a win that will be remembered for a long long time. #INDvAUS #AUSvIND
