Five Australian batsmen who gave India the most trouble

Allan Border

Allan Border is one of the highest run getters for Australia, mainly in Test cricket. But he had a good run against India in 50 overs version of the game as well. Border scored 1104 runs in 35 innings at an average of 42.46 with a highest of 105*.

Though Border was not all that aggressive or flamboyant, he used to play fierce cuts and pulls off the backfoot. He is more known for his admirable fights in the middle and arguably the best Australian batsman against the spin in the last five decades or so.

The Test series between India and Australia is named the Border-Gavaskar Trophy partly in honour of the iconic batsman.
