#1 India vs Australia - March 2017- Bengaluru
In the first Test of Australia’s tour of India at Pune, the hosts stumbled to a hefty defeat by 333 runs. However, Virat Kohli and Co didn’t drop their guard and instead staged a stupendous comeback, edging their rivals by 75 runs.
In their quest to make a comeback at Bangalore, India huffed and puffed to a total of 189 in the end of their first innings. Australia went on to take a lead of 87 runs to put the skids on India.
However, gutsy batting by Cheteshwar Pujara and Rahane ensured that India post some sort of a target on the board.
Defending 187 runs, Ravichandran Ashwin dished out a six-wicket haul and bowled Steven Smith’s men out for 112 runs. Virat Kohli couldn’t quite shine with the bat, but led India to the triumph with expertise.
