Video: Indian Players Pumped Up After Winning The Border-Gavaskar Series 1

India’s long home season ended in the best possible manner as the hosts thrashed Australia by 8 wickets in the last of the four-match series in Dharamsala to reclaim the Border-Gavaskar series. And the reactions of the Indian players after KL Rahul hit the winning runs said it all.

India began the series in a disastrous manner as the visitors thrashed them by 333-run in the series-opener at Pune. Virat Kohli’s men bounced back in style in Bengaluru, registering a comprehensive 75-run victory. The penultimate Test in Ranchi ended in a draw and the Indian team had its task cut out in the final Test. However, the hosts had their back against the wall as their talismanic captain was ruled out of the contest due to an injury. Moreover, India had not managed to win a single game in the new venues during the series and another new venue was a tricky situation for them.

But team India led by the maverick Ajinkya Rahane defied all the odds and beat Steve Smith’s men to win the series 2-1. The series is one of the most fiercely-fought series in recent times with the Aussie giving the hosts a run for their money in almost all the matches. Moreover, the numerous controversies that erupted during the course of the series made it even more absorbing and so it was not surprising at all to see the Indian players absolutely pumped up after bagging the series.
