#1 India back to winning ways
After being the outright favourites to dominate Australia from the first Test itself, the Indian cricket team were given a taste of their own medicine as they were thrashed by the Kangaroos in the first Test held in Pune.
The way the first two days of the 2nd Test panned out, it looked like Australia would run away with the 2nd Test as well, but Virat Kohli’s men produced a spirited performance on the final two days to get back to winning ways.

After the loss in the first Test, Kohli had said that India needed the loss to get a reality check and promised that they would bounce back, and they did so in style as they levelled the series in Bangalore.
With this win, they also sealed the spot for the no. 1 Test side and will receive the Test Mace in April.
The two sides will have all to play for in the third Test which will be held in Ranchi from March 16th.
