Update: 8 January 2019, Tuesday
The final test was plagued by bad weather, but not before providing India with a 2-1 victory over Australia in the series. This would also be the first time India has won the test series in Australia since first touring the land down under back in 1947. Read more about it from Times of India.
India makes a come back by 137 runs to best Australia in the 3rd Test, leading the series 2-1. We now head to Sydney for the fourth and last test starting from 3 January @ 10:30AEDT.
Australia bounced back by 146 runs to best India in the 2nd Test, drawing the series 1-1. We now head to Melbourne for the third test starting from 26 December @ 10:30AEDT.
India beat Australia by 31 runs to take the lead in the 1st Test of the series. This is also the first time an Asian caption (Kohli) won Tests in England, Australia and South Africa. We now head to Perth for the second test starting from 14 December @ 10:30AWST.
With all of their bases covered and Australia slipping to No. 5 in Test rankings on top of doing without their two premier batsmen, is it time for Kohli & Co. to end India’s 70-year wait? The Aussies have lost an unprecedented 12 of their last 26 Tests whilst India have won 11 of their last 15 Tests, it seems fairly likely that they’ll put on a great show and finally take down the Southern giants at their own home.
