IND vs AUS: Reaction to Cricket Australia's tweet on Team India

What transpired in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2020/21 

Following the abysmal performance in the first Test and Virat Kohli's departure from the series, India made a comeback in the 2nd Test that was held in Melbourne. In the match, stand-in captain Ajinkya Rahane led from the front by scoring a century in the first innings, and the bowling contingent led by Jasprit Bumrah made sure Australia never gets back in the game. After the victory, the action moved to SCG, which was heroically rescued by Hanuma Vihari and R. Ashwin on the fifth day of the match. The series concluded at Gabba where Rishabh Pant's winning boundary became immortal. A series that every Indian cricket fan will take pride in finished with a score line of 2-1.
