And Australia win the Test match by six wickets and clinch the Border-Gavaskar Trophy after 10 years! An impressive show with the bat in hand as they chase down a 162-run total despite the pressure put by the Indian bowlers. With this victory, Australia have won the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 3-1 despite losing the Perth Test, the first of the five Tests by 295 runs. India did put up a tough fight but in the end, it wasn't to be for them. Without Jasprit Bumrah, the bowlers did well to dent Australia's batting and bowl them out for 181 runs. Australia will now take on Sri Lanka and prepare hard for the WTC final against South Africa. India on the other hand, could not make it to the WTC final this time around and have a lot to work on in the next WTC cycle.
This match is completely in Australia's control now as they need another 11 runs to win with six wickets in hand. Questions were raised after the Perth Test but Australia have been superb and come out on top in crucial moments.
