Bollywood celebrities congratulate Indian cricket team for glorious win in Australia
India won the fourth and final Test of the series with three wickets, clinching the series by 2-1. Angad Bedi, Malaika Arora, Preity Zinta, Kartik Aaryan react.
Lauding the Indian cricket team for its glorious win against Australia, Bollywood celebrities on Tuesday took to their Twitter handles and praised the 'grit, fearlessness and self belief' everyone showed.
An Indian cricket team saddled with broken bones and battered bodies showed a never-seen-before zeal to retain the coveted Border-Gavaskar trophy with a historic three-wicket win over Australia in the fourth and final Test here, successfully chasing a 328-run target to seal the four-match series 2-1.
A minefield of talent called Rishabh Pant (89 not out off 138 balls) channelled his inner ''Mad Max'' to scare the daylights out of the Australians with his breathtaking strokeplay, ending the home team''s 32-year-old unbeaten run at the ''Fortress Gabba'

Can’t believe I’m in tears while typing this 😃 But the grit, fearlessness and self belief of this team is so inspiring. It’s the same spirit I see in all the young entrepreneurs I meet and interact with. The future is in the right hands #IndiaRising 🇮🇳
