Independence Day special: Remembering Indian cricket's golden memories

#4 India ended the Aussie domination in theTest Championships

India's first ever Test mace that ended the Australian domination in 2009

In December 2009, India was presented with a mace that was given to the No. 1 Test team by the end of the year.

It was the first time in Indian cricket history in the longer format that the nation is ranked No. 1, the team that ended the Australian domination who are the only winners of the mace since its inception back in 2003.

Successive series wins against Sri Lanka and Bangladesh and a drawn Test series against South Africa at home ensured India toppling Australia for the award. It was one of the best achievements for India under the leadership of MS Dhoni.
