The Indian team had a very bad start in this Test series but they made a tremendous comeback in it.
On this day i.e. 19 January 2021, the Indian team had given a crushing defeat to Australia in the Test series at their home. The Indian team had a very bad start in this Test series but they made a tremendous comeback in it.
Let us tell you, in this test series, the Indian team was all out for 36 runs. From here, the difficulty for the Indian team increased because the then team captain Virat Kohli had to return to his home. This was because at that time Vamika was about to be born.
However, in the unavailability of Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane took charge of the team and captained it very well. Initially it seemed that the hosts would clean sweep India 4-0 in this Test series but it did not happen. Ajinkya Rahane scored a century in the second Test match played in Melbourne and India leveled the series 1-1.
After this the fourth test match was played at Gabba, Brisbane. This was the venue where Australia had not lost a single match in 32 years before this match. At the same time, the combination of the Indian team had become even worse because the team’s experienced fast bowlers were injured and Mohammed Siraj had to lead the bowling lineup of the team, which till then had played only two Tests. However, Mohammad Siraj bowled very well in that test and took 5 wickets. Not only this, India achieved the target of 328 runs.
Rishabh Pant and Shubman Gill batted excellently
In the fourth test match, Rishabh Pant and Shubman Gill batted very well for the Indian team. Shubhman Gill had scored 91 runs in 146 balls in this match. After the dismissal of Shubman Gill and Cheteshwar Pujara, Rishabh Pant played an important role in the victory of the Indian team by batting explosively.
Other players performed very well for the Indian team in this match. Washington Sundar played a valuable inning of 22 runs in 29 balls. While on one hand many people felt that the Indian team would lose this test series, on the other hand he told everyone that no matter what happens, they should never be taken lightly.
