- Kuldeep Yadav – 4/5:
The chinaman couldn’t have asked for a better debut, as his four-wicket haul in the first innings ultimately turned out to be match winning. With Australia cruising after the first session on the first day at 131-1, it seemed that India were down and out. But out of nowhere, Yadav picked up four vital wickets to trigger a big collapse that eventually led to Australia losing the Border Gavaskar trophy.
